Description
Gateway Classic cars of Charlotte is happy to digitally present this stunning 1971 GMC 1500 blends classic truck styling with modern performance, comfort, and reliability. Finished in a sleek Dark Grey Metallic exterior over a striking red interior, this professionally upgraded pickup has been thoughtfully built from top to bottom with quality components and attention to detail.
Under the hood sits a powerful 383 Stroker V8 (4-bolt main) paired with a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission, delivering strong performance and excellent drivability. Performance upgrades include a March serpentine belt system, Holley 750 Double Pumper carburetor with electronic choke, Pertronix distributor, Hedman shorty headers, Cherry Bomb side exhaust, vacuum pump, and a Cold Case aluminum radiator to keep everything running cool.
The exterior has been enhanced with numerous custom touches including a cowl hood, smoothie bumpers, smoothed door handles, tailgate, and cab, along with billet hood hinges, LED taillights, and new glass throughout, including tinted side windows. A relocated fuel tank by Boyd Welding helps clean up the truck's appearance while improving functionality.
Inside, the vibrant red cabin features a comfortable bench seat with new foam, Ididit steering column, Dakota Digital gauge cluster, Vintage Air climate control, and a RetroSound Classic Bluetooth radio paired with a subwoofer for modern audio enjoyment. Additional upgrades include single-piece windows and a complete American Autowire wiring harness for reliability and ease of maintenance.
The chassis has been extensively upgraded for superior handling and stopping power. Features include coil-over front suspension, CCP 4-wheel power disc brakes, stainless steel brake lines and hoses, and a rebuilt 10-bolt Positraction rear end. The truck rides on staggered Cragar wheels wrapped in Cooper tires, measuring 7-inch front and 9-inch rear, giving it an aggressive stance and excellent road presence.
The bed is beautifully finished with Red Oak wood planks and chrome strips, adding a classic custom touch that complements the truck's overall presentation.
