OVERVIEW. Up for sale is a 1973 GMC Jimmy Blazer. The theme of this build was to keep it as original as possible with the addition of modern day technology for horsepower and reliability. This build is truly a ground up restoration. I have spent over a year restoring it as my full time job. The vehicle was acquired from Arizona so that the starting platform would have the least amount of rust as possible. I disassembled the truck to the bare frame so that it could be sand blasted properly. There were only 2 rust spots on the floor board that needed repair, which was done. The entire uderbody was coated with high quality bed liner so that rust will never be an issue. I approached each vehicle category as if it was it’s own project. Each section will tell you which parts are still original (OEM), which parts are new and a general description.

Please call me if you need additional information. Jake (970) 529-6791.
