1956 GMC 100 (Ophelia)

Ophelia is the 1956 GMC 100 Mike Sanders keeps in Conroe, Texas, near Houston. She is orange. The visor is molded in. The lights are round. The bed is a Fleetside with a stainless spear, and the tailgate carries a GMC script made for this truck.

He built her for himself. Blue Chip Truck Customs does appearances and rentals of that truck, and of the 1958 beside her. A show, a cruise-in, or a photo shoot is an appearance. A film or a commercial is a rental through USA Movie Cars. Mike drives. She comes home the same day.

GMC Blue Chip is the standard this generation was held to, and Ophelia is the earlier of the two trucks that still meet it. The face is the 1956 face: one pair of round lamps and a visor stamped into the roof. The bed still reads as a working pickup.

A half day is four hours on site at $750. A full day is eight hours at $1,200. The price is for this truck. Call or text (936) 657-0123, or write mike@bluechiptruckcustoms.com with the date and the place. For a production, use the 1956 GMC 100 listing at USA Movie Cars. Their desk is 602-882-2705.
