Re: Red Rocker 72 GMC Jimmy

I bought a 94 454 tbi big block the other day for my 68 GMC. It has the serpentine belt with the pankake ac compresser. So Im tradeing for his accessories because i dont have ac on my truck. and he changed his mind with the exaust. He didnt like the headers so he bought some hookers and i get the old ones.

Re: Red Rocker 72 GMC Jimmy

Work has really picked up in the shop and we haven't had much time to work on the Jimmy. We did get the accessories painted and put back on the motor.

Re: Red Rocker 72 GMC Jimmy

Sandblasted the front fenders today and some other parts and got them ready for epoxy primer. We have all the rust pits taken care of on the core support and it is ready for paint.

Looking very Nice. Is that an original or repop grill?
