In October of last year we bought a '59 GMC Fleet Option. It's something of an odd bird (some say rare). We want to keep it original. It seems to have the original 270 engine with the 4 speed on the floor. I think it's a long bed. It currently has a flat bed a PO put on it. In time we will put the step side back on it. It had an engine rebuild (so we were told) within the last two years and it starts right up and runs great. Though at highway speeds it feels somewhat strained. I only keep at 55mph.
Anyway... as you might tell we are new to working on these so it's good to be here and looking forward to fixing this truck up.

After you learn your way around a little bit be sure to post up a picture or two. Check out the gallery and the links and tech tips. Just a lot of good stuff here. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2015 Posts: 6 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Feb 2015 Posts: 6 | Thanks! I've been looking around. I would love to post some pics but the links don't look like they will work. I'll try anyhow.  Could it be because HTML and UBBCode are disabled? '64 Chevy '59 GMC
