From Paul: 

       Hello. Here are pictures of my 1958 GMC Panel Truck. It has a 270 ci inline six with a three speed on the column. The color is the orginal 1958 GMC Placid Blue.The truck is all orginal expect the wheels and I have the old steel rims with GMC hubs as back-up.

       The cars was frame-off restored by Robert Viscomi of Brick NJ and it took eight years. I've owned it about a year and I'm finishing the details -- changing out the vacuum wipers for electric, replacing the heater core and controls, new leaf springs and a dozen little things. I'm looking for GMC chrome bumper bullets, if anyone has a spare they would like to sell please e-mail me.

       It's been so much fun driving around Charleston SC. Everyone loves it. I would like to hear from anyone with the same year. I'm looking forward to connecting with other GMC owners!

Thanks,

Paul Hardy
