I just bougt a 1952 GMC 5 window. Does anyone know what changes they made in 1952. I'm having the truck shipped and all I've seen is pictures of it. would it be 12 volt? I'll try to post a pic. here...Thanks Terry1218 [EMAIL] [email protected] | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 874 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 874 | Hi Terry,
'52 would be the first year for push button door handles. Your truck would be six volt unless someone has converted it. I believe GMC's had a positive ground electrical system as well.
