Ten years ago today - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

brad2 · 09-02-2009, 11:31 PM

I went to buy this ten years ago today. While I was there my wifes water broke. I gave the guy a check and told him I would see him in a few days. So I got my 2wd Jimmy and my son on the same day. I drove the Jimmy for only one of the ten years I have owned it. It has spent eight years in non driveable condition. Grrrr! Here they are now. He is number 47.

That's a great story.When do you think you will drive it again?

vtblazer · 09-03-2009, 06:26 AM

Great that they're still together.

Burt4x4 · 09-03-2009, 11:30 AM

So what yer sayin is the 2x4 will be ready when yer son is 16 and ready to take it from you

I have always loved your Blazer!

brad2 · 09-03-2009, 11:01 PM

There are currently no plans for the Jimmy. My son may inherit in that condition.

Well, I hope he also inherited your vision and talent for metal work, because that is one of the cleanest lines I have seen on that particular body style

There was also something you did with the tailgate, but I can't remember what...oh well, CRAFT strikes again
Sorry I won't be around to see it finished!

although I see you arent replying. so maybe I will just join in wishing for progress.

I'm pretty sure the roof was from a suburban.

Not on my end (weird). Tried on a Mac and PC

**raggedjim** · 02-05-2020, 11:14 AM

Okay, so it works for me as long as I'm logged in, but quits once I log out. Obviously I'm not gonna get the links to work!

Basically I did an advanced search for all threads started by brad2 and this will get all of brads old threads.

Good luck, Rg
