This classic 1969 GMC C1500 short box represents the desirable second generation of C/K pickups. It brings a lot to the table with great looks and plenty of recent work including a complete repaint, new 350ci crate engine, and so much more. Just hop in and go!
As you probably know, the C/K family of pickups was offered by both Chevrolet and GMC. The only differences were cosmetic, the most obvious of which being the grille and headlight arrangement. The “Action Line” generation ran from 1967-1972 and is one of the most collectible of the bunch. It represents a major update in styling and a clear transition from a utility vehicle to something multi-purpose, with higher end trim and comfort packages becoming available.
As mentioned, this GMC received a complete repaint in its original Maroon color. Prior to that, the chassis was replaced with that from a 1972. This brings a few upgrades including front disc brakes and 5-stud wheels. Note that while frame swaps are common, many do not get a proper state issued VIN upon completion which can create title problems. Everything has been done correctly here! The chrome and moldings are in very good condition throughout. Other work items include a windshield re-seal, installation of a soft tonneau cover, and new sound insulation throughout the cab. The 15” wheels wear Bridgestone tires that show some light cracking; we can assist with replacement if interested.
In June 2025 the engine was swapped with a crate 350ci from ATK. This setup is rated for 290hp and includes Vortec heads and a hydraulic roller camshaft. Other features include an electric fuel pump, HEI distributor, and Brawler 4-barrel carburetor. There is also a new aluminum radiator and a set of Hedman Hedders feeding the custom dual exhaust. Behind the engine sits a rebuilt TH350 automatic transmission that was also done in 2025, while the 12-bolt rear end was rebuilt in 2026.
There have been many other mechanical upgrades in the last two years. The power steering received a new stabilizer kit, Pitman arm, idler arm, and lines. The brakes were treated to a new Wilwood master cylinder and proportioning valve. There is also a new battery, new front shocks and an updated 14-circuit blade style fuse box.
The interior was also redone and retains a stock appearance. The bucket seats were reupholstered and surround a center console with a roomy storage compartment. The door panels, headliner, and rubber flooring were also replaced. A proper GMC steering wheel sits atop the tilt column, and the instrument cluster includes a factory tachometer. The only aftermarket piece is a JVC stereo with Bluetooth. The heat and defrost functions work properly as do the wipers, washers, lights, turn signals, horn, and parking brake. The truck also comes with a binder of receipts from the last owner.
While there are plenty of nice-looking classic pickups on the market, so many are fraught with worn out mechanicals and non-functioning systems. Not this GMC. In addition to its nice looks, it is a very capable vehicle with everything ready for its next owner to enjoy.
