As for the engine, as far as I can tell it was an all original 307. I was surprised as well to see this one was a trailing arm truck as I also heard most GMCs were leaf spring. For me, I actually like low optioned simple trucks so this one had to come home with me!
Looking awesome


As far as the leaf spring debate goes. I believe that only GMC’s were available with leafs but they were also available with trailing arms. Up here it still seems to be predominantly coil spring. I’ve had about 10 or so 67-72 GMC’s and only 2 were leaf spring trucks.
