1965 GMC Stepside Pickup
The 1965 GMC Stepside is a classic American pickup, exuding rugged charm, vintage appeal, and timeless style. Built in an era when trucks were designed primarily for work, the Stepside variant stood out with its distinctive and practical design. This particular truck is powered by a 350-crate motor, paired with a three-speed 400 Turbo automatic transmission. The engine has only 15,000 miles on it since the build. The current owner purchased the vehicle 2.5 years ago, after the build was completed.
The truck features headers with a Flowmaster muffler and a three-inch exhaust extending to the rear. A 21-gallon gas tank is mounted underneath the custom wood bed. It also comes with a new Painless wiring harness, with new wiring from bumper to bumper. The vehicle is equipped with a new TCI Outlaw Shifter, mounted on a pedestal.
Stopping power is provided by front disc brakes and rear drum brakes, with 2.5-inch drop spindles and a lowering kit installed at the back. The orange exterior is complemented by custom black accents and lettering in the bed of the truck. The simple yet functional styling of the ’65 GMC Stepside includes practical features like a durable bed floor, sturdy bumpers, and a functional cabin layout that emphasizes usability. The iconic GMC badge on the grille and classic round headlights further enhance the truck’s vintage appeal.
Inside, the truck boasts a black leather bench seat, orange carpet, and an orange dash. It has a heater core, though there’s no switch inside to operate it. All gauges, including the tachometer, oil pressure, temperature, amperage, and fuel gauge, function properly, as do the windshield wipers. However, the speedometer recently began malfunctioning and making a whistling sound, so it has been disconnected. The vehicle also features an AM/FM stereo with a CD player and aftermarket speakers. Power steering makes this truck an easy driver.
Overall, the 1965 GMC Stepside is a classic icon of American automotive history, celebrated for its durability, practicality, and enduring appeal. Whether used as a work truck, weekend cruiser, or restored showpiece, this Stepside variant holds a special place in the hearts of truck enthusiasts and collectors. The truck is located in Rayne, Louisiana, and comes with a clean title in the owner’s name.
