Here’s your chance to own the King’s pickup truck.
A GMC pickup, 1 of 3 purchased new in 1967 for Presley’s Circle G Ranch in his home state of Mississippi, is up for sale on an August 31, 2019 auction by Kruse GWS Auction (http://www.gwsauctions.com) that is attracting a lot of attention. Here’s a picture of the pickup, which has been restored.
Elvis’s father Vernon Presley sold this and the other 2 GMC pickups back to the dealership in 1969, 2 years after they were bought new.
Also for sale on this August 31st auction are 2 other items belonging to Elvis. If you’re into motorcycles, you’re in luck...The King’s 1976 Harley Davidson FLH-1200 Electra Glide is up for sale. This is the last motorcycle purchased by Elvis before his untimely death in 1977 at the age of 42. Here’s a picture of the motorcycle.
Also on the auction is a 1973 Lincoln Continental white stretch limousine owned by Elivs, complete with old style TV in the back.
