Rebuilding a 2006 GMC Sierra that was hit in the doors

  • It was a little bit of a drive for this one but it is what I have to do to find rustfree vehicles. This 2006 GMC Sierra has less rust after 15 years than most Illinois vehicles after 15 months. Being an older vehicle, the damage is just the tip of the iceberg to make this thing like new again.

    Didn't think there would be enough meat on the bone flipping a fifteen year old truck but being a Texas truck at least it's not crusty. Watching South Main Auto repair (upstate NY) channel everything he puts on the lift you have to wonder why it doesn't fold in half with all the rust. 👍👍👍

      I was thinking the same thing but then again, used car prices have skyrocketed and ANYTHING is worth 50% more than it was last year. Not to mention pickups were already fetching a premium.
      Where I live, before the supply issues with new trucks, even an 11 year old F150 with 240,000 kms was going for $18,000 cdn. The thing that would kill that up here in Canuckistan is the 2wd. Only good for the summer.

    The GMT800 was/is my favorite vehicle and I have owned just about everything since my first car in 1978. Nice work Scott, that one should sell quickly once you have massaged the wrinkles out. Your Amazon store has just about everything, but no pizza girl? Must be a maintenance issue. :D

      I think they recalled the pizzas girls due to the no pizza defect! 😂
