1974 GMC JIMMY 4X4 w/454ci Big-Block. FORMER SHOW TRUCK.THIS AUCTION IS FOR A STUNNING 1974 GMC Jimmy, same as K5 Blazer. The truck has 44,350 miles on the drive train, since the original, older restoration.
It was a former show-truck (10-12 yrs ago), that I bought in AZ, 7+ years ago. It was always an AZ truck, until I brought it to WA-state.
Here, it was never used in the winter or rain …only driven on sunny days. Paint is still inbeautiful condition, with some minor nicks & chips here & there.
Body-off restoration, with an unimaginable amount of money thrown at it. The entire truck is stainless-steel Allen-wrenched together! SIMPLY INCREDIBLE.
This is a factory full-convertible (this body style was only made from 1973-1975). The entire Hard-Top comes completely off.
Additionally, I have installed a high-quality, large sliding canvas roof, as the removal & storage of the big hard top was a bit cumbersome, to me.
Truck was always babied, and mainly used on weekends. Never hot-rodded or off-roaded. I’m in my mid-50’s …and take care of my stuff.
