Jimmy camper is out again... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**too much stuff** · 07-17-2021, 09:40 PM

Had our local car show coming up and decided i would spend some time on the jimmy camper and bring it up to the show. The people that understand what it is like it, but most people think it is a short bed with a slide in camper.

Got the console put back together. Too bad about the big hole in it, but i see what the PO had there...

Does any one repro the rubber boot for this transfer case?

Found some more NOS goodies in back. I haven't looked up the first part, anyone recognize it?

**too much stuff** · 07-17-2021, 09:44 PM

At the show. More car show pics in general discussion.
Enjoy

Thanks. The slots are 6 lug by 16.5. 8 ply duralon tires that are probably 20-30 years old. Ride like a hockey puck...

Thought i had a couple more pics here... guess i may have to take a couple more tomorrow.

That’s a pretty cool looking rig

That is super cool. I’ve never seen one of those. You should post some interior pictures of the camper.

Curious to see how they laid that out

I think the goodie in pic#3 is a Spare Tire Holder. The kind that goes behind the back seat.
Either that or it's a rotocoil gyrostabilizer brace for the flux capacitor intercooler.

For sure not a tire holder or brace for the intercooler. Book shows a plenum LH side?

Then run the numbers. There's a GM p/n taped to the piece. That should lead you somewhere.

I have had to make boots out of ones that where available in the past.

Here is one that may work for you???

I looked it up in my book and it shows LH plenum cowl. That is from my gmc master book. I will try to get a better pic.

I think a camper shell would be cool to have, though I am not sure what I'd need to do to my C10 LWB to handle it. Though I doubt I'd ever find a camper shell to even try to install one!
