Re: How are is a 1953 GMC with a hydramatic?

The question of "what to do with it" has definitely been solved! I was going back and forth between doing a restoration and building a hot rod. I love stock trucks and heavily modified trucks, so I was having a hard time deciding - until I discovered how rare this truck is. If this were just another Chevy with a 235 and a 3 or 4 speed - then there would be no question...I'd hot rod it, and it would be "just another" AD truck with the 'typical' V8/IFS/4link/etc...

But this truck is definitely getting the factory restoration treatment! Besides - how many stock 47-53 GMC's are even on this board? nuff said...
