The seller offers for sale this 1955 GMC 150 pickup, a classic American workhorse. This vehicle is powered by a 3.8-litre six-cylinder petrol engine mated to a manual transmission.
The car is in a good mechanical condition and the vehicle holds a valid technical inspection certificate.
The exterior of the truck was recently resprayed as part of the restoration. According to the seller, the paintwork is in beautiful condition and does not require further touch-up or correction. The body panels show well and are presented straight and complete. Photographs support this, showing clean lines and well-finished trim.
Inside, the cabin has received new upholstery and is described as good, with minimal wear.
The 1955 model year was an important one for GMC and Chevrolet trucks. This was the launch year of the “Task Force” series, replacing the earlier Advance Design trucks. The new series brought more modern styling with a wraparound windshield, updated grille, and optional features that bridged the gap between utility and comfort. While the Chevrolet version received more attention in the mainstream market, the GMC 150 offered a slightly more upscale image with often stronger drivetrain options and additional chrome details.
These trucks were built to be durable and functional, and over the decades they have become icons of post-war American industry and culture. Today, they are prized for their simple mechanicals, classic styling, and broad parts availability. Restored examples like this one are frequently seen in vintage truck shows, enthusiast meets, and weekend leisure use.
The GMC 150’s boxy proportions and distinctive front-end styling help it stand out in a field of modern pickups, and its solid, ladder-frame construction and rear-wheel drive layout are hallmarks of a traditional American utility vehicle. With a clean bill of health and fresh cosmetic restoration, this example is ready to be enjoyed by its next owner.
