Project 30 years sitting

[Dale99]

So I had been on the hunt for a jimmy/blazer or burb. Found a 72 Jimmy 4x4 2 blocks from me that has been setting for approx 30 years.

Story is it was purchased in Tenn. Original owner had it roughly 10 years. Sold to guy in my state to make a deer camp rig out of it. Before it was registered, buyer 3 made offer and got it. Buyer 3 tried register it, they wouldnt allow him for some reason. But he just planed on it being deer camp as well, he didnt bother. He lifted it, cut fender wells, changed motors, exploded transfer case, replace with newer trans case. Motor started getting rust chunks in the fuel, so parked it. While hunting for new tank, parts were stolen off it. So he just pulled it into the weeds and let it sit.

I am buyer 4. I have protecto plate, and a lot of butched crap since it was deer woods rig. I also had to remove the full brake system just to get it rolled out of its hole and onto a trailer.

I intend of making this a nice driver. I need something to put lightweight bulky items into the back off, and still beable to keep things locked.
