Chevy/GMC Stories
Drive into the heartfelt journeys of Chevy and GMC truck owners. From restoring old memories to building new ones, these stories celebrate the bond between people and their trucks.
2003 Chevy Silverado 1500 – Darrel C.
Had this truck since it was new. I use it for off roading, camping, and trout fishing. I’ve never had a breakdown. I enjoy it every time I drive it. It’s 23 years old and drives like new and starts every time.
1959 Chevy Apache – Doug K.
First vehicle I drove was a ’59 Apache when I was 5. It was in a harvested wheat field while my mother was swathing an adjacent field. I was hooked by the sound of a roaring v-8 with a rusted out exhaust. Got in some trouble of course. After 42 years of a law enforcement…
1997 Chevy Silverado 1500 – Tamakia C.
I’ve owned more 97′ Chevy’s than most 40 year Olds (I’m 28). I was born in 97′ and a Chevy truck from that year will forever and always be my go-to truck, my ride or die. My current truck is probably the most favorite out of all the ones I’ve owned. Her name is Big…
2004 Chevy Silverado – Reese L.
This is my first truck I’ve had since I was 16. I am 19 now, and to be honest I wanted a square body but I got this, so I brought the 70’s to her and now I’m building this truck the way I like. I’ve added some before and now photos.
1962 Chevy C10 – Brandon S.
I have owned my 1962 C10 since I was 15 years old. Growing up my dad had a 1960 short bed step side 4×4 almost his whole life and I knew I wanted to own my own 60-66 C10. I began my search, and one day my phone rang and it was my grandfather. He…
1977 Chevy K10 – Luke L.
The story begins 30 years ago when a 15 year-old boy was starting to look for his first vehicle. Being on a farm there was only one choice; it had to be a truck, and in my family, a GM is preferred. After talking with my parents about letting me get a truck, and the…
1978 Chevy K10 – William W.
Hi, my start on my ’78 Chevy k10. The truck started out being my uncles, my grandfather bought it from him to use as a pallet truck. My grandfather got cancer and I started rebuilding it for him. But he ended up passing away before I was able to get it done. I put it…
1972 Chevy K5 Blazer – Shane S.
Students at Western Iowa Tech Community College proved that hands-on education can compete on a national stage with a stunning frame-off restoration of a 1972 Chevy Blazer, showcased at the 2025 SEMA Show in Las Vegas. Located at the crossroads of Iowa, South Dakota, and Nebraska, Western Iowa Tech is known for its strong technical…
