Hi Dennis! My dad Carlo sold this truck to the original owner in 1984. He still remembers the truck and the gentleman he sold it to, and it's his handwriting on the invoice you posted. His family business, Falchini Motors, was a small GMC truck dealership in Ebensburg, PA that was established in the early 1930s, first as a Pontiac dealership then eventually becoming a GMC franchise and remaining in business for more than 70 years (the description above says it was located in Falls Creek, PA, but that's actually where the buyer was from). My dad, his father Frank, and his grandfather (also named Carlo), personally sold and custom ordered every truck. He is long retired now, but my dad still remembers details of just about every truck he sold, including the backstory of each and every buyer. Everyone loved stopping at the dealership to talk to my dad and he treated all of his customers like family. There isn't much to be found about Falchini Motors or my dad on the internet, so seeing this video all these years later and knowing that the truck was appreciated means a lot to my family.
Dennis keeps on calling it a C10... This is a K10 😉😉😉
Thank you! How many didn't notice that? It was driving me nuts, but he's a TH-cam God. lol Maybe no one wanted to say it.
It’s a key because it’s a four by C is for 2 Wheel Dr.
I think it’s K15 because GMC. Chevy would be K10.
It's says 1500 on the fender, K1500... Pretty sure Dennis Collins has forgotten more about cars/trucks than most of the people posting on here will ever know. I think at some point GM dropped the C, K, some were R and V depicting 2 or 4 wd.
😂
This needs a special FALLGUY INTRO Mr Collins
“Well I’m not the Kind to kiss and tell but I’ve bern seen with Farah” what a great show!
I see Lee Majors sitting in there
It would need to be a long bed for that
@@gregsmht40 its the same platform right?
I wonder why they never made a MOVIE like the dukes and others
Being a Pennsylvania resident I can't begin to tell you how much I miss seeing those old blue plates, the old yellows are even better. Killer find Collins Bros team!
The best one was the imprint of Pennsylvania on the plate. (1960’s)
I had this exact truck in red. I got rid of it because of the dual tanks - fireballs ! Tanks are on the outside of the frame. Great little truck, but dangerous. Later got the same truck in 1995.
Best truck I ever owned. I wish I still had it.
You're kidding, right?
You shouldn't be driving a truck if you're afraid of a little fire.
4WD would make it a K10 Dennis
It’s amazing to think this truck was kept in such good shape. It came from a little town right outside of the community I’ve lived in all my life. Just goes to show you, you never know what hiding in your neighborhood.
35 car's and Truck's in 3 different building's in the same condition hardly any Miles or rust owned by the same guy pretty awesome find for Dennis, the shameful part is I wish I found a couple of those truck's first
@@harrystevenson7098 yeah, that’s a huge find… you had to have know the old guy to know what he had…. I grew up in the general area where he stored his collection and had no idea it was there. It’s also amazing that these “barn” find collection are still out there and being uncovered… won’t be too long and they won’t be found anymore.
What a great looking truck, 🇮🇪🇺🇸,38 years old and looks brand new.fair play to the previous owner for keeping it in such great condition.
Love listening to Dennis talk about cars/trucks, so knowledgeable. Outstanding!
Thanks Dennis for Rescuing all these beautiful classic enjoy watching Coffee walk
I have a 1978 Chevy SWB BIG10 454 that I special ordered in 1978, it has almost 84k miles now. Bright blue metallic #25 with blue interior. Silverado trim package with almost every option available, even the factory tachometer. The options cost more than the base truck which back then came with a 6cyl 3 speed stick, no a/c and only a heater. I didn’t order power windows and door locks because they were junk. I ordered the radio delete with the windshield antenna and installed my own radio. The base price was around 3,350.00 IIRC and the MSRP was 7,200.00. It’s a long story but the short block was replaced at 500 miles and I was able to pay the 75.00 extra for an LS6 short block instead of the LS5. I sold the solid lifter cam and installed a hydraulic cam. The original block was a two bolt main and the LS6 is a four bolt main cap block with forged pistons and crankshaft. The original heads are #781 oval ports which are open chamber and with the closed chamber LS6 pistons yielded a 10.2 to 1 compression ratio. I ported the heads and cut them for larger valves, 2.19” in. and 1.88” ex. I completely disassembled the truck in the middle 90’s and repainted it the original blue. It has always been kept out of the weather/sun and inside of a garage.
1978 was the last year that the BIG10, which is classified as a 5/8ths ton, did not have a catalytic converter or any emissions controls. It had a true dual exhaust but I installed headers with Flowmasters #51050 with 3 inch custom bent pipe all the way to the back in the same configuration as the original pipes. I have it insured with Hagerty for $45,000.00
Would love to have that. I had a neigbor when I was in high school who worked for the GM truck plant in St. Louis. he ordered the same truck in a Chevrolet. He walked it down the line. I Rember when he brought it home!
Im A diehard Ford guy, and I think this truck is amazing. Super cool indeed. 😎👍
What a truck wow!! If gm did a 5 year run on a retro truck like it would blow the ordering system out to space!!! You couldn’t build them fast enough!!!
Imagine if they did that to several of their classic cars. They'd have to have modern engines/transmissions, but the shape is what would sell. Picture a thousand-car run of new '55 Bel-Airs, '59 Cadillacs, the full-size muscle cars from the 60s. You right about the ordering demand - they'd all be pre-sold before getting to the showroom.
@@DuckReach432 yell yes brother these new cars today are so cookie cutter cars!! I would love like a 69 chevelle ss or impala ss or a nova ss dam they could do it tooo would shatter sales records
@@cbruno12180 69 Z!!!
Shit they all want to go E.V. totally out of touch for what the people want.
I said the same thing about the gen 5 Camaro in 2010, if GM would have duplicated the 69 Camaro body they would not be able to build enough of them for the market.
Brings back memories, I had the exact same truck in frost white w/blue interior and long bed (nobody ordered short beds in my area in those days). It was nice looking but the 305 with the 4 speed was a complete underpowered dog. The GM 4 speed has a granny 1st so it is actually really a 3 speed. I often towed a Glastron Carlson 20ft boat so after a few months of motor bogging I tried putting on headers with hiflow dual exhaust (I had to practically beg the muffler shop to put in a crossover pipe, in those days he thought my "experimental crossover" was "a waste of pipe", no problems deleting the CC in those days as long I removed it before and put in a "test pipe" ). The exhaust changes did did not help power at all. I then changed the cam to a one step up 292 lift, still little improvement. Put on an Edelbrock aluminum intake designed for towing and had the speed shop do some common minor mods to the Quadrajet carburetor, (drilled out factory "block plugs" so mixture could be hand tuned ). No noticeable real improvements yet. Finally, I pulled out the stock HEI distributer with early computer input plug and replaced it with an earlier model stock Chevy v8 non computer HEI distributer that had the weights and springs custom "curved" by a speed shop. This change also bypassed the computer but plugged in normally and was unnoticeable. I Installed it and by tuners instruction turned it until the motor pinged and backed off 2 degrees "I recall". HOLY COW!!!! did that motor come ALIVE and all the previous mods I suppose also came into play. No dynos in those days but it felt like that one last distributer change alone added at least 50 more horsepower and the gas mileage even improved a few mpg (no bogging?). Towed the boat like a tractor with not a hint of bogging ever even on hills.
Having that truck with this motor/transmission combo got the manual trans urge out of my system for life, been all automatics since and I have never touched a new truck's motor again either. My truck had 342 rear end gears and I think 373 would have been much better with the 305 and maybe not required the mods. I think that early HEI w/computer was robbing all the power somehow. Those days were pre internet and had to guess and work with what I could order from the local regular auto parts store. Today you would have countless more options, advice and info. I drove it for about 50K miles trouble free and still feel lucky it all worked out, if the distributer swap had not worked I would have had to trade it off for a truck with more power. I think the distributer change alone would have made it driveable and was the cheapest and easiest to install change. The dealer suggested I swap back the original distributer when I traded and I still have the curved one today stored away somewhere.
My little brother has the same truck but with the V6 not the V8. Its also a 4 speed manual. I freakin love these K series now. The off road capability stock is amazing.
Thanks for driving it too, that's what a machine is meant for. As much as some collectors won't do, they need to listen to their vehicles.
U2 Pride was released in 1984. My friend owned an 85 obs. You took me back Dennis.
Beautiful truck! I don't have the means to own it but congrats to whoever gets it. Immaculate condition and the correct number of pedals too.
Real trucks don't shift themselves
Amazing how Dennis finds these 30-40 yr old vehicles that look like new!!
All it’s missing is a chrome roll bar and front brush guard, and KC Daylighters with yellow covers. That’s how we rolled these back then. ;)
Haha! Yellow covered KC lights!! I had forgotten about those. It's like looking back on slap bracelets. Brings a smile to my face. :)
Is this the legendary FULLGUY TRUCK? BEST SHOW ...EVER
Amazing truck... I'd take this over anything new. I have an 85 GMC 2wd shortbed I'm currently working on. Can't wait to be looking over that square hood while going down the street/strip.
Posting any pics or anything online of the build?
@@freemansgarage Nah I don't do much online posting other that the occasional comment. Maybe when it's close to done, but It's been kind of a slow process. Something to tinker with on my off days, ordering needed parts when I can, etc.
That why i keep my 92' Chevy S10 for the square hood and the 4.3 short bed.
I had an 86 that was IDENTICAL to that one!!!! Even put the BFG's on it!! Went from the dealership to the exhaust shop and had dual converters and exhaust on it. Wish I still had it 😢
I had a 78 step side 4 speed 350 Chevy and I used it like I should have! 3 speed with a granny gear is what we called it, had road tires and 35 in ground hogs on it. Got more ass in that truck than I deserve! And that was in the city! Indianapolis. Good times. Love the show !
🤙🏻😎💯👍
Hey, Tom! I work in Indianapolis. I am 62 years old. I remember those trucks with big mudders The whine they put off was really loud. My co- worker was about 5'6. He had a Jacked up GMC shortbed and big ole' mudders with a step to get in and out of. He would pull up at work. The open the door and jump down. He just loved that truck. Then one day someone in a regular sizes Pick up. Drove under his driver side door. Totalled it out. He couldn't fix it back up. That was that! I really miss those days of telling each car and truck apart and all the extra parts people put on them to make them there own. SHAWN.
Hi Dennis…love your show….I have a 1999 dodge 2500 ram pickup long box v 10 four wheel auto with 12,350 original miles….I’m the original owner …your gmc looks great…good luck with the auction.. I love all original cars…
Gorgeous GMC i can't believe how much love some of these original owners put in and Dennis ability to get hold of holy grails on the Dailey
The guys who wrap everything in covers never get to enjoy what they are preserving but maybe they get a kick out of the fact that underneath is pure perfection 😀 what a cool find.
Absolutely Gorgeous!! Along with the back story, I am afraid to fall in love because I know I couldn’t afford it.. what a gem!!
Absolutely love it!! I had an 85' K5 blazer a long time ago and really miss her.. Beautiful truck Dennis!! Thanks for showing her off.. Happy Easter to you and the guys!!
I watch all of your coffee walks I really glad they are people like you out there that speaks for the vehicles
Gorgeous! We had an identical ‘86 Silverado that we junked in ‘99 with 265k. Brings back memories.
Look at Dennis Driving that beautiful truck like he owns it !!!!!
Zdravím, Denis, máte úžasný cit pro estetiku a detail, jste borci. Děkuji za video. Mějte se hezky. Bobes. Česká republika
Dennis, back in the day I bought a new motorcycle from the dealership. They gave me a crisp 2 dollar bill for my first fueling. Safety laws limited the amount of fuel they could keep in the tank. so they gave everyone the 2 dollar bill to top it off. That's always stuck out in my mind as a very cool idea. It was a small token that made that dealership and that purchase stand out from the rest. Perhaps something similar is the purpose of your 1985 5 dollar bill found in the paperwork?
Came from my home state and just was a dream truck of mine from younger days. Amazing.
Wow that's an amazing find... Thank you for showing us Dennis
We like this trucks in Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 GMC classic truck is always ths best
Beautiful truck. I had one. Thank you for your videos. Happy Easter to you and yours
Seeing that trunk on the grass, I can hear my neighbor yelling when I was a kid "Get off my lawn!". Really nice GMC pickup.
I want my ‘85 Chevrolet Silverado Short box two wheel drive in Gold and Sand Tan Back, first truck and new vehicle I ever bought! Beautiful truck right there!
That is OUTSTANDING! My dream truck ❤️
You can give offer to mr.dennis 😊
@@josephuriel2175 out of my pay grade lol
I'd say better than a new truck from this era!
You know what the coolest part is about driving these square bodies? Is looking down that hood. Super awesome.
Thank you so much mr. Collins for sharing this I'm loving that truck and I wish you and Alex all the best and your family Happy Easter
Helluva great truck! Brings back alot of memories!
What a beautiful truck! Thanks again Dennis!
One of a kind. Too nice for a daily or weekend driver. Once in a lifetime !
Absolutely
I'd take it out in the desert and thrash it.
Desert pinstripe job.
@@seeharvester Baja it to death
@@scottdavis1703 😁
Dennis, I love all the cars you show, i remember few of them when I was a child. Our neighbor had the Jimmy. Love all your cars
Wow that’s a gem 💎 top notch for sure.
I’ve had a few 305’s and nothing but good luck.
You can pull plenty of power out of that motor with not much work.
You have taught and inspired me Dennis!
That grass is on point!!
Beautiful truck!
Bring a trailer is great but, that truck should auction on Saturday, a big show 150k.
My brith year. I’d love that pickup.
Really like these bring a trailer videos
Seeing trucks like this being called a classic makes me feel old.
Beautiful truck Dennis! I was 3 years old when that truck left the lot!
Those trucks have always been my dream truck, wish I could afford one
Wow 👌 amazing find. What a beautiful truck ❤ worth every penny
Woohoo a Saturday video! Love it!
Appreciate you tuning in!
Beautiful truck. Would be nervous to park in shopping parking lot 😬
Nice. These low mileage classics are out there. I recently bought a 1970 Plymouth Valiant for $300. Sat for decades in a garage with a full tank so gotta take care of that. 😅
Amen Dennis I love an old square body GMC.
Beautiful truck !. It reminds me of mine, except it was a 1984 Sierra 2500 4x4.. in dark brown.... Absolutely loved that truck..
Outstanding. What a great find.
You keep getting my fav vehicles buddy! What a stance that one has!
Had an 85 a lot like it, midnight blue, auto, just like so many others, wish I still had it!
Dennis...wow! You never dissapoint
Awesome video guys thanks for sharing 👌 👍 😀. Happy Easter 🐣
That definitely is a super nice preserved mid 80's GMC pickup. 👍
Geez your team finds some awesome time capsules !!
Love the square bodies. Scottsdale, Cheyenne, all of them.
Good looking truck. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome truck. I agree with everything you said about the GMC. EVERYTHING.
Spend a ton of money to buy this beauty and if you drive it a months later all the seals start leaking like crazy after sitting 29 years.
Makes me miss my 86 Black Chevy Silverado short wide 2WD with 305 V8 in it.
I want it!!! Needs a 3 sticker on it!
Interior Looks exactly like my 82 Chevrolet, Black step side, also had the 305” Downfall FIVE TRANSMISSIONS replaced, took AMCO to get it right.
I've yet to own a truck with under 250,000 miles crazy now that I think about it. Them bfgoodrich K02 look good on it
beautiful truck i had one new in 85 was a half-ton black red Interior 350 auto 7r4 3.08 ratio long box Sierra classic kept it until 2000 sold it ad 79000km
My neighbor had a new one in 85 and what a beast;)
That’s beautiful. Most guys didn’t order black because we used them as trucks, and black is so hard to keep clean.
The 3 speed manual only sounds like a great feature but it's only rare because the 700R4 Automatic is one of the best transmissions of all time and better in everyway if you ever want to drive it.
Wow! What a beautiful truck. Just one drive down a dirt road is all I need plz
I miss that truck. I would drive my uncles 1985 Sierra with the rare 4 speed and radio delete :)
Essentially what my black '16 would be if it were an '85. Something else!
Vary awesome indeed. I love the short box truck.
This is a gem!!!
Amazing Dennis Happy Easter your a Good Man
Outstanding looking truck
My lord that's a beautiful machine , happy Easter to whom scores that baby
Holy Grail 85 ...Wow.!!!
I have loved that truck before I could even drive. I cut out of a four wheeler magazine that truck but with mud all over it in a STP add and had that pinned up on my wall.
K15 because it's a GMC and 4x4 Dennis
What a beautiful truck!
Good looking GMC short bed. Good luck on BAT with it. You won't need it though. I like those one owner all original honey's. My Dad bought a new '77 GMC 4x4, 350 V8,Auto/AC/tilt wheel/dual tanks/PS/PB/AMFM Stereo/sliding rear window/white/light green/light green interior (traded his '72 Monte Carlo w/factory fender skirts triple green). I loved that truck and when allowed took it to the OBX and drove it on the beach (surf fishing) @ Hatteras. No worries, I got to the nearest car wash immediately so I wouldn't get my $%$%$ chewed about the salt on the underneath. At one point he put HD suspension on it for a truck camper. What a bouncy event then when camper was not on. He had that truck well into the 90's with low miles but like most of that era, rust was a problem no matter if it did see a beach or not. And let's not talk about gas mileage, hence the two tanks. Big wallet needed even more so.
That's one beautiful truck Sir!
Wow that truck brings back memories. We had an 85 Blazer...4wd shifter looked the exact same....same with radio.
What happened to the Blazer?
I wanted to order a 2WD blazer when I ordered my 1978 BIG10 but it was not available with a 454.
@@noahdunaway that's cause the blazer wasn't available with the Big 10 or Heavy Half option, which was required in order to get a 454 in '77-'79 half tons .
Dennis the nice thing about them truck's you got on that deal in Pa they were not drivin in the winter or the Brine water they dump on our highway's now that eats vehicle's apart in 5 year's that's a beautiful truck very rare being a GMC shortbed keep up the great video's I'll be watching for the other's from that Falls Creek Pa
Insane to see how prices are on stuff like these. I remember in high-school you could get one for under a few thousand.
That’s a beautiful truck!
