Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
Well here it is ! Estimated completion SEMA 2013 ! My wife decided she wanted her own vehicle that could haul the whole family and pull Cloud 9 to some long distance shows and of course showcase our product "Slosh TUbz Squared" ...so here we are project "SQUARE PEG" !!! It is a 1987 GMC JIMMY 4x4..soon to be a 2wd layed out on the ground ! LS powered, with a nice Retro theme probably go with the early round eye front end and a two tone paint with the early trim.....still deciding on colors ! So here is some pictures of it yesterday , i should have it at work today i will steam clean it top to bottom tonight , see if i can get the motor running so i can put that on craigslist (it is supposed to run great TBI 350) then start dissasembling all of the rest of the chassis ...more craigslist !
The first picture is me and my wife Sarah, i just thought i would show you who i am building this for . The rest are the beautiful original paint , zero rust 1987 Jimmy... project Square Peg !! This is going to be fun so stay tuned ! |

Member hot trux has a pair of 73-80 NOS GM front fenders, if you decide to go with the early front end.

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
I am new to the Square body side, i am looking for all of the advice i can get ! So if you have any tips feel free to share ! I am planning on using the early front clip on this and my thoughts are to modify the early hood on the windshield side so i can still run the cowl panel , has anyone done this ?
