Are these worth more than a reg 58 GMC truck?

Right is right, even if everyone is against it, and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it. - William Penn | | | | | Joined: Jan 2008 Posts: 4,961 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2008 Posts: 4,961 | The fleet option used the same fender as a regular 58, but had a head light bucket to accommodate one 6012 sealed beam, It had an expanded metal grille and it used the Chevrolet fan shaped instrument cluster, but had a GMC logo on it. They are rare because not many of them were produced. Most of them were in urban commercial use and ran into the ground. However, not everyone sees them as beautiful. Jay Leno has one in his collection that has been restored to better than new. Does he want another one? Who knows. It is one of those things that is almost impossible to find if you want one, and difficult to get rid of if you have one. If I owned one, I would leave it completely as is, and protect it from the weather, etc. It would give me some bragging rights to say I own one, but if someone with big money couldn't live without it, I would sell it. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | fleet option trucks, worth what someone will pay, not likely more than a regular model in the same condition Bill | | | | | Joined: May 2004 Posts: 67 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2004 Posts: 67 | Did GMC make a 1 1/2 to 2 ton fleet option truck? The reason I ask is because I have located a 1957 GMC 1 1/2 or 2 ton truck with the factory expanded metal grill. | | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 |
