Flat Out Autos has just started work transforming a new GMC Sierra into a modern-day GMC Jimmy with plans to unveil the unique creation at this year SEMA Show in early November.
The project was first teased back in January and will see the Sierra pickup transformed into a two-door SUV that could rival the Ford Bronco. While work on the vehicle is still in its early stages it is starting to take shape.

These images show that Flat Out Autos has removed the bed from the pickup and shortened the wheelbase in a move that will no doubt help to boost the vehicle’s off-roading credentials. The shop has also fabricated a custom rear cross member with leaf spring hangers and shock mounts. The next step in the project will see Flat Out Autos reinforce the rear cab with a unibody structure before the cab and bed can be welded together.
It is not yet clear if Flat Out Autos will stick with the same basic pickup design of the Sierra, albeit with a canopy over the bed, or if it will be more like an SUV with the interior extending into the bed where the rear seats will be found. Either way, the finished creation should be a real eye-catcher, particularly once it is completed and sitting on a set of beefy off-road tires.
Flat Out Autos first caught our attention back in October last year when it unveiled a two-door Chevrolet K5 Blazer that was actually based on a 2018 Chevrolet Tahoe Z71. Interestingly, that very same car is being auctioned off at Barrett-Jackson’s Palm Beach auction running from April 7-9.
