Our 1959 GMC ex fire engine with just 2791 miles from new

Off with the old bodywork .

Original chassis only required a light sandblast then primer. Not bad for 48 years old. Truck has shed a lot of unnecessary weight as well. This is the basis for the new frame. We wanted to accentuate the curvy design of the original cab and showcase the type of work we are capable of in a practical vehicle which would get noticed.

Fifth wheel mount can be seen in above shot. This was to pull our mini artic trailer to race meetings.
