Keg holders??

Chevyman63 · 10-27-2009, 10:19 PM

My first thought was for LP tanks, but that doesn't seem very safe.

My take on this is: keg holders are good, deer bait haulers also, it's all good!

A lot of rattle can evidence all over it too.

Should be interesting to see what it goes for, not an $8500.00 dollar ride to me though.

Thanks for sharing.It`s cool to see one of these pulled out that has served a purpose for all it`s life.These were a Jeep replacement and Jeeps got used for the darndest things back in the`60s before off roading became so popular..Bait buckets are more likely what went up front.I think they used it to spread the bait and someone would ride up there.I`m curious why the top is just the way it is.You know it`s custom made that way for a reason.I guess you could get in and out of the covered part easily.

I agree it`s not worth so much.It seems to be a bit pieced together with the earlier mirrors.Maybe they just swapped them for some reason.But,likely the doors are 69/70 Blazer or modded 67/70 truck doors.

Looks like the center of the bumper is for a spare tire. The bumper almost reminds me of those used on brush and mini-pumper fire trucks, although the side pieces do look like bucket holders.

Buy it and remove the bucket holders, mount a keg or cooler in the middle, a couple of folding seats on the side, then drive right up to the lake, sit on the bumper and fish.

I thought GM never offered brown as a paint option... if so those are some rarer visors and door panels

Big Block · 10-28-2009, 09:54 PM

Ok ,that it I'm raising the price on my Jimmy!

vtblazer · 10-30-2009, 07:06 AM

I like the factory overspray on the tires myself. I think I will have to try and duplicate that.
