Bought a jimmy camper...

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.

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.

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

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?

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.

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

Some original receipts from back in the day and original hubcaps with 30 years of dust. Can't forget the chrome shifters!

Some NOS goodies. Rockers, complete set of lower woodgrain, sill plates and even an upper tailgate seal.
Looks like he traded in a 65 mustang on this.
Last 2 pics are after a little detailing.

Mine is a 72 Jimmy

Re: Bought a jimmy camper...
 
Is it just a shell? I see a propane bottle cabinet, and a stove top on the bed floor. Was there ever any cabinetry, sink, fridge, etc? Are you planning on adding these things?

There are some storage cabinets up high, lights, and a small furnace. Somehow the PO had a sink hooked up and the stovetop, but i am not sure how. Once the weather gets a little better I will work on it some more and decide how far to go.

Ol blue, Thanks.

Thanks ryan, yes some good history.
Technically I would be the third owner, but owner 2 never transferred title or put more than 20 miles on it.
