71 GMC Jimmy to be for sale soon
This is a GMC Jimmy I picked up off Ebay out of Logan Utah for the sum of $470.00 It was a wreck.
Grill beyond repair, missing rocker panels, smashed windshield, missing rear hatch, Frozen 350 (owner said hood was lifeted up for 10 years while it snowed and rained down the intake manifold, I pulled the drain plug and got straight water for minutes!!!) The fender was smashed, driver side door smashed. Rear end was blown up (had to take one with me to dolly it back) complete wire harness was disconnected and rolled up in corner of engine compartment cracked and usless. And the Wasps!!!! I battled wasps for 2 months untill the cold set in and killed them, they made their homes in the ashtray, tail gate, under the dash, in the doors it was scary to work on it I got stung only once.
Now: has a nice V8 283 or is it 286??? I know its chevys small V8, first one I've delt with. Engine has edelbrock 625 cfm carb sitting on top a weiand intake. all brackets and engine and compartment has been painted. Truck will be metallic purple when finshed with silver flake. interior will have all new carpet front and back, with rhino lined rear tub sides and inner tail gate. seats will get covered and dash, doors, floor kick panels will also get the paint treatment. tint the windows, hook up new flowmaster exhaust. maybe 4 inch lift with 33 - 35 tires. And I know I've left a great deal out lol
here she is about 2 months ago, I now have a grill on it, and a lot of it sanded down getting ready for paint. Engine is also completed and buttoned up.
