GMCDAC's GMCs
I have held off posting anything to speak of about my GMCs since I don't currently have a 60-66, but a 60 GMC Burb is why I have the addiction and someday I will own a truck from this era again!
Our first GMC was the '60 Suburban in my avatar and the first pic. That's Mom with it Christmas day, 1963, 50 years ago.
In 1971 Mom bought a 1970 K5 GMC Jimmy which I now have and it is my primary project. Mom drove it until 2001. That's the second pic Mom and the Jimmy in 1977.
In 1979 my wife and I bought a 1972 C2500 and we still are using it to this day. 3rd pic was from that year, and the 4th pic is 2012.
When Mom passed away in 2009 it was too hard to work on the Jimmy so a co-worker gave me a '55 GMC that was destined for the crusher and that gave me a project to do until I could face the Jimmy again. 5th pic is the '55 in 2009 the day I got it, and the 6th pic was taken last September.
I did have a very ugly but great running '62 K2500 GMC from 2006-2007 but had to sell it when Mom's health began to fail. Needed the cash for her. That was when I joined Jolley's yahoo site and never lost interest but lurked since I had to sell that truck.
Here's some pics. Hope it's ok with everyone to post this.
