Check Out This 1990 GMC Sierra, Cadillac Escalade Mashup For Sale: Video

The first generation of the GMC Sierra was notable for breaking away from the C/K nomenclature used by General Motors, referring to Big Red’s lineup of full-size pickup trucks. Spanning from model years 1988 to 2000, the original Sierra’s lifespan overlapped the introduction of the first-generation Cadillac Escalade, which was produced for the 1999 and 2000 model years. Now, someone has built a 1990 GMC Sierra that features a front end from the Caddy full-size SUV, and it’s currently listed for sale.

1990 GMC Sierra Cadillac Escalade mashup thing.

Complete with Cadillac badges front and rear, this 1990 Sierra is unlike any other. Right away, the first-gen Escalade front fascia gives away that this Sierra is special. However, moving around to the rear, you see a set of unique, upright taillights reminiscent to those found on vintage Caddys.

An eye-popping red paint job helps this Sierra to stand out even more, while also accentuating the stepside bed and custom tailgate. As for rollers, this 1990 Sierra rides on 20-inch chrome alloy wheels.

Not to be outdone, the interior has also been thoroughly upgraded. Intended to provide a Cadillac feel, the Caddy logo has been stitched on the seatback, while a white interior provides a striking contrast to the red exterior paint job. In addition, billet bits can be found throughout the cabin, including the steering wheel. Power windows, power locks, an AM/FM/CD stereo, and air conditioning are equipped, while a dash-mounted screen delivers a 21st century touch.

In regard to powertrain, the naturally aspirated 5.7L V8 LS1 gasoline engine provides push, while power is routed to the ground via the GM 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission. Spent exhaust fumes are expelled through a center-exit exhaust, which features Magnaflow mufflers. Additionally, tubular A-arm front suspension, power steering, power brakes, and front discs make this truck a well-rounded performer. This Sierra is currently up for sale at Streetside Classics in Atlanta.

  2. Guys did same thing with S10s. Used Bravada and Sonoma “kit-bashing”.

  3. Body swaps like this have been a thing for decades. Some people don’t get the “custom” thing. It’s a huge business

  4. Amusing little thing in its own way. I remember seeing a 1983 style Buick Century/ Olds Ciera/ Chevy Celebrity type sedan with the Cadillac front and rear when visiting southern California. It didn’t look bad. What the Cimarron could have been when it grew up. LOL
