GMC in the snow.
Dug out the 70 camper to get ready for some work at the body shop soon. Couldn't help but take a few pics. Thought you all would enjoy.

Re: GMC in the snow.
You thought right, I enjoyed very much. That color Green is gorgeous.
My skinny bones aren't made for such cold weather though. |

Re: GMC in the snow.
When you live where it doesn't get very cold it makes you think you couldn't live where winter weather hits. I can relate. I feel that way every fall!
That Jimmy Camper is a poster child. Imagine it with the whole variety of outdoor environments in the background

Re: GMC in the snow.
Really cool! Can't say when the last time was that I've seen a shortbed slide in camper!

Looks like the white stuff is here for the season!

Look close and you will see it is actually a jimmy and not a slide in camper at all.

Woah, nice rig! I didn't notice that it was a Jimmy, either. Mini motor-home!

Re: GMC in the snow.
Funny how the way you see things change as you get older. If I would have stumbled on to this when I was much younger I would have started off right away ... Where can I ditch this top and find a factory correct one?
Today's older and wiser (?) me would say, wow what a great truck I wouldn't change a thing.
