The condition overall is in excellent condition and is ready to be enjoyed by the next lucky owner. This fleetside has had a full restoration and being carried out to a high standard. This includes the air ride set up and the re location of the fuel tank to the bed of the truck. The front frame is a 1974 Camaro. Is what is called stubbed. Original front frame was cut off and Camaro frame welded on. Why? The 56 GMC did not have power steering, modern suspension and drum brakes.
