    Great pictures - but there were a LOT of those ugly GMC grilles there.

    It took GMC until the middle of this decade to look better than a Chevy! I own a 2007 Sierra.

    Better not let Zig hear you say that.


    And I'd agree that the 55-56 Chevy grille looks better that same year GMCs, but I like the '57 GMC grille better than the same year Chevy. Of course I may be SLIGHTLY prejudiced.

    But I am SURE the '57 GMC dashboard is much better looking than same year Chevy dash.

    bill i wish i had some pics of my 59 gmc truck that i bought in highschool. it was my first truck! It was a blast to drive. I will always love that style of truck also. My ol 59 was the long 8' bed, non step side. I just have always love the AD trucks, and pasted up on that 59 to get my 52 only 10 yrs later.:D


    gonna love that GMC!!!! no offense to the chevys, but theres nothing quite like the GMC
