Wrench Report

By Chris Esparza

RestoMods Head Mechanic. 20 year classic car mechanic & builder.

This custom Carryall nails the balance between bold style and drivability, pairing a cohesive color scheme with an upgraded wheel package that enhances its stance without losing its classic soul. Underneath, a rebuilt 350ci V8 and overdrive transmission give you authentic vintage muscle that handles effortlessly on the highway. Spacious, comfortable, and unapologetically cool, it's a vintage road-trip machine built to actually be driven.

Description

The 1966 GMC Carryall is powered by a rebuilt 350ci V8 paired with a 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission with just 16,147 miles since the rebuild. Finished in turquoise with a custom pearl white roof featuring heavy blue metal flake, the truck has been modified with updated wheels, air conditioning, and an upgraded drivetrain while retaining its original two-door Carryall body configuration. The interior is trimmed in turquoise and black vinyl with front and rear bench seating. This GMC is now offered with a clean Missouri title by the selling dealer.

The body is finished in turquoise with a pearl white roof accented by heavy blue metal flake. Exterior details include chrome trim, dual side mirrors, and a two-door SUV body configuration with rear cargo access. The truck retains its full-size Carryall proportions along with a painted steel roof and wraparound side glass.

A set of 20-inch US Mags Desperado 6 wheels has been installed with Toyo Extensa HP II tires measuring 245/45R20 at all four corners.

The cabin features turquoise and black vinyl upholstery with a 70/30 front bench seat and a matching rear bench offering extended passenger legroom.

Interior equipment includes air conditioning, an AM/FM radio, painted metal trim surfaces, and a factory-style dashboard layout. Instrumentation is positioned behind the steering wheel within the stock gauge housing, and the truck retains a spacious passenger compartment designed to accommodate multiple occupants.

Power is provided by a rebuilt 350ci V8 equipped with electronic ignition and paired with a 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission. The drivetrain has been updated to provide lower highway cruising RPM compared to the factory transmission configuration. Cooling is handled through a front-mounted radiator setup, and power is routed to the rear wheels through a conventional rear differential.

The undercarriage retains a body-on-frame layout consistent with the model's original construction. Suspension components, steering configuration, and axle specifications were not disclosed, though the truck rides on a modern 20-inch wheel and tire package and features front discs and rear drums. This GMC Carryall was previously listed on BuyTheCar here.

Why is the vin tag not in the factory location? And, what type of the vin tag is that? Factory GMC vin should start with a C or K.

Revheads Seller Sep 30, 12:51 pm PDT

More than likely, at some point in the car’s history, a state where the vehicle was previously titled had to **reissue or assign a VIN** to it. This is something we see fairly often with classic cars, especially vehicles that have changed hands or been titled in multiple states over the decades.

As long as the VIN on the title matches the VIN assigned to the vehicle, it is not something I would consider unusual for a classic car of this age.

2 things...1st in the driving video...Why if the steering column and shifter shaking like crazy with just a normal drive? Also on numerous encounters with bumps in the road there seems to be lots of real serious rattles in that truck...Any explanation for it?

Revheads Seller Sep 26, 3:38 pm PDT

I don’t think you fully understand what you’re looking at here. This is a classic truck—not a brand-new vehicle engineered to eliminate every vibration, rattle, and bit of road noise.

These trucks use mechanical shift linkage rather than the modern cable-operated systems you’re probably accustomed to. Because of that, normal play in the linkage combined with driveline vibration can cause the shifter to rattle or shake. That’s part of the mechanical nature of a vintage vehicle, not automatically an indication that something is wrong with it.

The same goes for road noise. This is a classic Suburban with a wooden floor. Yes, you’re going to hear the road, drivetrain, and other mechanical sounds. It was never designed to be silent inside.

What matters is that this truck is dependable, runs strong, and drives exceptionally well for a classic vehicle. If you’re expecting the quiet, isolated driving experience of a modern SUV, then a classic truck probably isn’t the right vehicle for you. If you want something with character that actually feels and sounds like a classic truck, that’s exactly what this is.

Jimiheadstone Sep 26, 9:15 pm PDT

You are kidding right? I have had many 50's 60's 70's vehicles and trucks in my life and had some of them converted to updated transmissions...Never..ever has a single one of them ever had an automatic gear shifter shaking /wobbling like that (Maybe a 3 on the tree that was worn).....ever. And the only time I have ever had a truck or a pick up with a wooden bed of floor take slight bumps with a clunk like that..it meant that someone did not shim correctly or Old or bad body mounts were used. Your answer was Typical of some know it all guy that assumes that I have never owned a classic car. These are legit questions that were given a bullshit answer to because you think I'm jumping from a 90,000 Suburban into a 60's car car expecting the same thing... Thank for the Revealing answer to my questions...It was a blessing

Revheads Seller Sep 26, 10:15 pm PDT

I can already tell you’re full of hot air, Sir. If you can’t understand that a classic car or truck is going to have some squeaks, rattles, and road noise, then I seriously question how much experience you actually have with classic vehicles.

I’ve been in fully restored, $300,000+ cars that still had squeaks and road noise. Why? Because at the end of the day, they’re still classic cars built with decades-old designs and technology—even when they’ve been restored back to original condition.

These aren’t modern vehicles engineered to be completely isolated from every sound and vibration.

So good luck with your airtight Honda, Sir. As for the claim that you own multiple classic cars, based on what you expect from one, I’m having a hard time believing it.

Revheads Seller Sep 26, 10:21 pm PDT

Oh, and the funniest part is your claim that you’ve never heard of a classic truck with a wooden bed or an old Suburban that has road noise. Seriously, Sir? I own a 2010 Chevy bus with only 15,000 miles on it that makes MORE noise than this Suburban!

That right there tells me everything I need to know about your so-called experience with classic vehicles. You’re expecting a decades-old truck to ride and sound like a brand-new luxury vehicle. If you actually owned and drove the classics you claim to have, we wouldn’t even be having this conversation!

Jimiheadstone Sep 26, 10:36 pm PDT

Again your answers are quite revealing. God forbid a problem arises after the sale that's the revealing part.....And after some research it's no wonder why this truck has not sold time and time again Mr I've been in a 300,000 dollar resto car man... LOL

Revheads Seller Sep 26, 10:49 pm PDT

I’m not sure what you think is so “revealing” here, other than the fact that you clearly don’t have much experience with classic vehicles.

This GMC underwent a documented frame-off restoration, and we have the records and documentation to back up the work that was performed. And here’s something else that’s apparently pretty “revealing”: after the restoration was completed, the owner drove this truck down Route 66 without an issue.

So I guess you’re right—it is revealing. It reveals that this GMC has actually been driven and proven on the road, while you’re trying to diagnose problems based on normal noises and characteristics of a classic truck.

There’s a big difference between identifying an actual mechanical issue and simply not understanding what you’re looking at. 👍🏻

Rev…it’s not a good idea to argue with bidders over comments or questions. Do your best to deal with them and move on. Even if you’re right you lose in print.

Revheads Seller Sep 28, 8:17 am PDT

That’s exactly what’s wrong with the world today. Nobody wants to stand their ground anymore or stand up for what is actually true.

I’m not the kind of dealer who is going to sit back and let tire kickers run their mouth and make claims about a vehicle when they don’t have a clue what they’re talking about.

If a truck has a legitimate problem, I’ll be the FIRST person to tell a potential buyer about it. I have no problem being upfront about an issue when an issue actually exists. But I’m also not going to let somebody invent problems, spread misinformation, and act like they know more about a vehicle than the people who actually have it sitting in front of them.

So no, I’m not going to stay quiet just because that might be the “professional” thing to do in somebody else’s eyes. You can be professional and still stand your ground.

The world has gotten way too soft when defending the truth is somehow considered a bad thing.

That’s not how my dad raised me, and that’s not how I run my business.
