This 1971 GMC K2500 Custom is a ¾-ton pickup that is powered by a replacement 350ci V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission and a replacement dual-range transfer case. The truck is said to have been refurbished prior to its 2021 acquisition by the seller, with work reportedly including a repaint in two-tone blue and white, reupholstering the interior in black vinyl with houndstooth inserts, rebuilding the axles, and installing replacement exhaust and braking components. Additional features include power steering, a Holley carburetor, Pioneer audio components, Tuff Country shocks, and 16″ American Racing aluminum wheels.
The truck was repainted in two-tone blue and white under previous ownership according to the seller. The pickup bed is finished in a body-color textured bedliner coating, and additional exterior features include a sliding rear window, a receiver hitch, and chrome bumpers.
Polished 16″ American Racing aluminum wheels are mounted with 265/75 Hankook Dynamic MT tires. Superwinch locking hubs are equipped up front, and the truck also features Tuff Country shock absorbers. The braking system was reportedly refreshed under previous ownership with installation of replacement front calipers, rotors, and pads as well as rear drums and shoes.
The cab features a bench seat upholstered in black vinyl with houndstooth cloth inserts joined by body-color steel surfaces and replacement black carpets. A Pioneer AM/FM cassette stereo is connected to door-mounted speakers, and additional amenities include a trio of auxiliary gauges mounted below the dash, a lockable glovebox, woodgrain door accents, and Bowtie-branded all-weather floor mats.
A two-spoke steering wheel with a GMC-branded center cap frames a 100-mph speedometer and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 63k miles.
The replacement 350ci V8 breathes through a Holley carburetor and was installed under previous ownership. Additional work is said to have included installation of a replacement intake manifold, distributor, water pump, alternator, and radiator. The engine oil and filter were changed in preparation for the sale.
Power is sent to the rear or all four wheels via a column-shifted TH350 three-speed automatic and a replacement dual-range transfer case. The front and rear axles were reportedly rebuilt under previous ownership.
