Some more....
This truck is a '49 GMC long bed half ton, a model not available from Chevy back then. I sold the owner/builder a vintage speed part several years ago, from my collection, and that part is currently on a different GMC six being built old school style for a belly tank streamliner that will run at Bonneville. He started it up and let me hear it run, sounded great. These straight sixes have a distinctive exhaust note.... imagine a six cylinder Harley.
That sound is probably due to the siamesed exhaust ports giving you only 4 outlets.

Saw this NBS GMT 800 K2500 Burb at HEB, not a Burb seen too often in central Houston.....
Those 800 burbs are everywhere in MS, I get tired of seeing them.


Love the truck, not the window stickers.....l
Anyone with political stickers on their vehicle is asking for trouble imo. Especially if you take your vehicle somewhere to be serviced.

The 1500s are still somewhat common around here, but the 2500s, not so much. I have actually seen a Quadra Steer Burb, but it was going too fast down the road for me to catch it....

this topic has popped into my head a ton over the last few days.... i've seen soooo many gmt400s (gotta be close to a dozen) the last couple days, which is odd for my area. i see a few every once in a while, but so many in such a short span has been great!! the highlight was yesterday - 3 in a row going in the opposite direction - a burb, a full size beat to crap long box, followed by a lifted standard cab short box!

i love it!

sorry - no pics - distracted driving laws!!

A picture of Rawhide I took yesterday when we stopped for groceries. Notice how the late model Burb/Tahoe are taller than my truck ( maybe they're 4wd but still....).

Saw this Tahoe Limited at the toy show today. Several other nice or working trucks came by us in the freeway but I didn't get any pics.
