Hey Thanks I appreciate it i'm lovin and looking forward to getting the floor done

[mud.man.rj]

Ya it is slow work, I just fixed the same on my floor, then saw how bad a job someone did on my rockers (inner and outer) and cab corners so changed them too, then both doors, slow but just finished a couple weeks ago, very happy. Always wanted a Jimmy with about a 6" lift and 36" mud tires and a big block, not now though that I spent so much on my truck, second time owning it too, cool body styles aren't they. Keep us posted, will be watcking the build.

I will keep posting as much as I can And I have always loved the body styles ever since I was a kid My dad had a 69 baby blue blazer and I guess when I was a couple days old I went 4wheelin in it he has video somewhere I need to find.

[mud.man.rj]

Well Imliked the suv body style so much and needed one for my twin girls for a daily driver I on a temp whim bought a 79 Bronco, fixed it up sold it twice and finally built it properly then... still not a Jimmy sold it again and ended up with my 71 GM again. I no longer need a suv but a truck as my kids are older now and starting to drive so going to teach them to drive a standard with the 71. Here is a pic of Bronco, cool, but not a Gm. You like what you like right.

[mud.man.rj]

Hope I didn't wreck your thread with a Ford, haha, better post a Jimmy again.

HAHAHA Maybe Yeah I got alot of side markers to front and rear alot of the stuff are junk yard parts but if I break something I probably have 4 or 5 sets to replace it with I need to go through the box's tomorrow and post up the pics of what I have.

If you ever plan to take that top off - you are going to need the torsion boxes (the technical term for the things that are gone and have saddle tanks in their place).

The torsion boxes that NTR72GMC gave you keep the body from flexing when the top is off.
