1979 GMC Sierra Grande

1979 GMC Sierra 1500 Description

Barn find pickup truck - when they made them with U.S. Steel. Bought 6 years ago with 32K original miles. Second owner. Well cared for ever since. Original GM factory exhaust system - still quiet and looks new. Original windshield with AM antenna embedded in glass. Original seat, floor mats, well, you name it. Very powerful and quiet. Even gets decent gas mileage. Double gas tanks makes passing emissions easy - skip the tank filler test. No rust except quarter-size surface in driver door jam. Easy fix. I have driven it like a grandpa. But if you put the pedal down at the stop light, she'll light 'em up and scare the teenager in his Civic sitting next to you. AM radio works. Tires are decent. What else do you need to know? No tire kickers please. No power windows, door locks, seats. No cruise control. Kick panel ventilation combined with the white top all but guarantee your physical comfort without all the gimmickry. But still, you're lucky it has visors and arm rests.
