Please note that experience shows us that the photobucket of over 100 large pixel pictures posted here are in most cases best viewed and downloaded using the very latest and most updated version of the 'Firefox' browser as some other browsers and especially older browser versions are not capable of accommodating the size of the download. Over the years our clients have overwhelmingly been appreciative of our many unaltered large pixel photos posted in our ads and our feedback has been that it is very rare that a dealer will post all but the most flattering of professionally finished photographs. We prefer to post the many photos taken of the car, n sometimes unflattering but natural sunlight, n order for our prospective buyers to be able to see true and reliable images of the car advertised and that is the reason for some seemingly duplicated shots. We trust you will agree.

This great daily driving 1958 GMC 100 series Stepside Pick Up is simply a great turn key ready daily driver for any classic truck enthusiast. The 1/2 ton Chevrolet/GMC pick up was renamed the 3100 in the 1940's and they were outselling the Ford's with a 33.8% market share in 1949 compared to Ford's 21.6%. But Chevy couldn't afford to be complacent and by 1950 there were several welcome improvements such as double acting all around shock absorbers and a circuit-braking lighting system. The Thriftmaster six offered slightly more power due to a Rochester power jet down draft carburetor, arger valves and a straight through muffler. In the year 1955 the Thriftmaster engine was increased to 235 c.i. (3851cc) with an increase in both bore and stroke. GMC as a marque produced a straight six and later a V8. The last GMC straight six engine was the 270 c.i. 4.4L and it was a raised-deck engine produced from 1940 through 1962 and was an OHV/pushrod engine. In 1958 these trucks became known as the Full size C Series for Chevrolet and the 100 Series for GMC. This particular truck's engine runs strong and sounds absolutely magnificent and the truck drives really well - must be driven to be appreciated - drives straight as an arrow with no strange road wobbles, shakes or rattles - a truly remarkable daily driver! This is a very rare opportunity to own a great daily driving example of this very desirable southern California 1958 GMC 100 series Stepside Pick Up in very fine daily driving condition ready for any classic American truck, ollector or enthusiast to simply enjoy or collect today!For further information contact West Coast Classics through Ebay or on 310-399-3990 during regular California business hours.
