Happy birthday to me. The owner had a change of mind and decided to sell to me after a few Months. Needs some rust repair and tinkering. Got to take it for a drive yesterday. New engine is always a nice bonus! I will add more pics in the next few days.
Pics after a quick bath. Been sitting for awhile.

That is cool.

**dozerbill72** · 03-15-2018, 09:45 PM

Everything about that rig is awesome. See it's a good thing it rained you out when you where down this way, You might have spent all your play money on silly stuff.

Shinysideup · 03-15-2018, 09:48 PM

Thats a sweet bachelor pad! I didnt even know those existed. Wow.

**Chevyland** · 03-15-2018, 10:05 PM

Very cool rig, I’m guessing it is some sort of custom conversion?

That is really cool I thought I had the only Jimmy with a camper on it.

**too much stuff** · 03-17-2018, 10:22 PM

Weather was nice today so I got to spend some time with it. (wife helped too)
Got the original wheels and rear seat that looks like new yet.

**too much stuff** · 03-17-2018, 10:30 PM

Even has some 16.5 6 lug wheels, and NOS wheel wells.

Wow, I learn something new everyday about these trucks

You must be stoked !
It’s so cool when these ones make it into the hands of people who appreciate the nostalgia of this era of truck.
I’m sure you will be a great caretaker of a truly rare find

That's sweet, now you can visit all your forum buddies and sleep in their driveways...cousin Eddy

I'd like to see more pics, how is the condition?

air cleaner and get rid of the worm drive clamps on the fuel filter

Green Monster · 03-16-2018, 09:24 AM

Great color!

Is this a one off custom? Are they any other camper Jimmys or Blazers in existence?

Could you post some more pictures of the interior; the camper part, specifically.

**special-K** · 03-16-2018, 09:34 AM

Yes, I would like to have that. Thank you.
