Another project

I bought an 88 jimmy recently to replace my current daily driver (99 Jimmy). It's got some rust issues mainly in the cargo area right by the tailgate. Other than that it seems to be pretty solid. rebuilt motor, new tires, new whinch. No leaks. I've been looking for a while and got this one at a decent price. I work in camp, so progress will be slow. First priority is new body mounts then to fix the rusted floors, and rockers, new seals around the windows. I plan on eventually painting it myself, and finishing the interior. I want a truck that is clean and enjoyable to ride in, but not so nice that I won't want to go cruising the old logging roads and some mild off roading.

Re: Another project

I like it, sounds like you have a good plan in mind for it too.
