Check out my 1982 GMC Jimmy - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

hamad · 08-15-2013, 02:02 AM

Hello everyone. This is my GMC Jimmy that we've had for almost 5 years now. It has around 1500 original kms. I tried to get as much pictures as i can but its very dusty and the place is pretty small to move around. As you see its been modified by the original owner to have a folding windshield, other than that it appears to be stock. I wanted to take photos of the window stick but i forgot, sorry. I also wanted to know if anyone had any info regarding the winch.

Thanks, Hamad

The rear roll bar and dual front shocks are pretty rare options. The truck looks pretty solid and original except for the windshield modification.

Never knew that the dual front shocks was rare in an 80's blazer... The quartz clock is something I've only seen a handful of times.

I'm very curious about the windshield conversion, why was that done?
The doors were modified and what about the roof? Would love to see more pictures of the work!

The modification was done when it was brand new. It was bought to be used for a hunting vehicle among with many others just like it. I guess this one wasn't used and sat there and wasn't started for 26 years! The windows are plastic and are removable and wont roll down, the windshield folds and lays on the hood. If you notice the mount on the fender, this is used to attach a piece to secure the windshield in place after folding it. It still has the window sticks on with the bill of sale still glued on to the window.

Thanks for the comments guys!
