Re: 1972 GMC Jimmy PENNY

Thanks guys! I pulled up most of the original carpet the other day and found nothing but solid original paint sheetmetal and a few PENNYS. I did find more rust in the driver side kick panel then I was hoping but I have some naval jelly that I will use to neutralize everything this weekend and hopefully stop that from spreading..

I also adjusted the brakes, fixed all the lights, and replaced the starter with a high torque starter. It runs really well and seems very happy to have a good starter installed. I think I may move the new exhaust to the top of the list if I really plan on putting some miles on this thing., the factory stuff is pretty rough.

I am getting ready to place an order this weekend for some parts to get the short term list dialed and then get her out on the road and enjoy it! I'll post some more pics in the next day or so
