74 GMC Jimmy 4x4: Pumpkin full of rust

Decided to keep a thread for my K5..... I plan to just drive it around "town" and sell it if someone wants to pay me more than it is worth. Maybe wheel it a bit?

It photographs well but has some serious rust! All orignal 350/th350/203... It spent too much time under an oak tree 4 blocks from the ocean which caused the rust.

Oh well its fun to drive with the top off





My wifes 69 Pontiac Lemans in the background. Its a great car



I live a mile from the county road so this is how I take the trash out

Took the back seat out and Rear side panels out... More like a mini truck bed now which works much better for my uses and my dog Bane. I bolted the chain to the floor with one of the old seat belt bolts. This also solves the issue of security with no top.
