Default Momma's Jimmy

I'm going to start this thread for the jimmy envoy I just picked up for 400$

the bad(that I know of):
- tires
- oil change
- p0302
- alternator
- minor body work

it has all leather beige interior, heated seats, tow package, 4x4 works(havent tested to make sure), ac works(not tested). Its a bone stock virgin. Unfortunately, there wont be any big upgrades, as itll be the wife's ride.



these are the pictures from the ad. I'll have better ones when I get the truck home tomorrow

$400? Nice. With your Blazer knowledge, the repairs could be straight-forward.

Unfortunately, I dont believe that's an envoy. It doesnt have the rear spoiler, rear bumper, or cladding/badging from the envoy package.

Still looks like an awesome deal though, and I'd definitely pick it up.

I'm with you on that chevy. The only reason why I put the envoy in there, is when I searched up the vin, it came up envoy and not jimmy.

I'm bummed about the spoiler tho lol

Looks like a Jimmy but no biggy, still a good deal. If it runs it's worth the $400.

So I'm just gonna say the vin search is stupid, and go with everyone else, and the truck badges, and say it's a plain old jimmy lol. But here are some pics. Ugly on the inside, but some elbow grease, and some steam cleaning, and itll come out looking good.

Pretty straight

No sagging

Fender work, and missing plastic piece

Work needed here...

More heated seats!!

No tares, just some ware

Very dirty carpets needs cleaning, and a jack cover is needed

A NONE broken center vent cover(a lil jealous about it)

For 400.00 you didn't get hurt on it. You could part it out and make money on it if you wanted. I always wished they offered a two door Envoy.

Heck of a deal! Those are my fav stock S-Series 4x4 rims.

And I do have an extra Envoy spoiler. Going to test it when it warms up, see if it glows.
