Dude Kyle I've gotta be honest, when I first got on KZread ten years ago as a freshman in high school I watched your channel more than anything. This channel is genuinely what got me into cars. Over the years I've subscribed to like 100 other channels (many of them auto related), and I watch them all as much as I can, so naturally I didn't watch as many of yours. Your recent stuff, especially this series, has really brought me back here. Like you I find older everyday cars more interesting than fancy super cars, and all of the restorations/details and DIY stuff is super cool to see. Really impressed with your FINISHED product, and genuinely happy to see your channel thriving. Cheers man!

I absolutely loved this project from beginning to end. There's something so special about a perfectly restored "regular" car.

I've followed this from the start and it's absolutely amazing how you have managed to get it up to this standard. I don't know if I speak any truth here but in all honesty, I believe you own the nicest Jimmy in existence. It's a lovely body style, I really appreciate the square styling and the "simple" construction. It's definitely a favourite of mine.

No I believe this is definitely the best one in existence not only did he replace just about everything for a ground-up restoration he modified and improved all the weak areas. This is literally a much better truck then the day it was built. I will consider this a restomod done with the best taste.

That is the best sounding 4.3 I've ever heard. I didn't believe Kyle at first because every 4.3 I've ever heard sounds horrendous but that is a very great sound.

Seeing the Jimmy restored helped push me to get my Blazer back. Its more sentimental than anything but they're so easy to maintain and work on. Hope to see you at Carlisle!

LOVE the old Jimmys! Looks absolutely fantastic. I am a fellow North Carolinian and have been watching your channel for almost 9 years and I truly enjoy everything you do and I'm glad to see that there are so many car enthusiasts out there

I was with this build till the stero system. Clean and great job overall. Made me wanna find what junk yard my 94 ended up in and rescue it. Just a pet peeve.. replace that defrost switch its whooped. They can still be had

Kyle, as a fellow GM S-truck enthusiast, I must say. You did an absolutely phenomenal job on the restoration! That is one STUNNING First generation Jimmy! Side note, that Magnaflow custom exhaust sounds PERFECT on that CPFI 4.3L Vortec! 5 stars and two big thumbs up my friend!

Fantastic job bringing the Jimmy back to life. I had a 94 Chevy S10 Blazer, great running truck. I put a lot of miles on it and it just kept on running.

Love this Jimmy so much, your efforts are fantastic and it’s really paid off big time, its so heart warming to see average cars that back in the day unloved brought back to life and funny how rare they are now. Superb video dude!

Kyle, you have no idea how much I have enjoyed following this project! As well as many other of your videos. Your attention to detail with this Jimmy is amazing. I have always liked the early 90s S10 platform. Mainly the Blazers and Jimmys. You nailed this one! I cant imagine how great the stereo sounds with all the additional sound deadening. You get a 12 out of 10 on this build. The 4.3 build is amazing as well. The engine bay looks amazing and almost stock! It sounds great as well. You never did mention what muffler you went with? V6s in general are a tough one to nail on the tone. This sounds great. Keep up the great work. Love your channel.

Congrats Kyle! I assume it must feel incredible to finish the project up. The car looks so clean and so fresh I am pretty sure I wouldn't believe it was a '93 if I had no idea about cars. What an incredible job! Love it! You are right. The restoration content is literally a fresh breath of life in today's unrealistic world. Among the super car stuff there's of course our very own Shmee, I love his content because he's so genuine and the experience is great. But then, otherwise, KZread is just filled with a lot of that content. I've been watching the channel for a long time now, and despite being a huge fan of the reviews, the restoration content was really a GREAT direction to take. I still enjoy the reviews, but the passion that I get to see when you restore this machines makes it all the more enjoyable, besides the extreme depth in restoration, of course. I look forward to see the 240SX up and running too! Cheers, Kyle :)

Sounds great! Looks the part as well. I like the leather, GM also put some nice cloth interiors as well. Gotta love the back wing, it’s not there to hold the road, it’s there to keep the back glass free of snow and dust. The digital dash is nice . You got the best of all the models.

Congratulations all that hard work finally paid off! That exhaust sounds great!

Nice job on the resto.Reminds me of the 1991 slt Jimmy I had.Mine was black over grey.I had to replace the spider injector and the digital Gage cluster.Both were $500 each back in1999,other than that it was a great little truck.I wish I still had it.....

They don't make them like they used to, can't get anything quite like these old S-10's anymore. They may be old, they may lack safety features, but even if you leave it sit for a while it'll still start right up and take you where you need to go like it's nothing. Pushing 30 years, these things will last forever (As long as you don't let the rust get to them lol) It's great to see someone bring one of these back to its glory.

Such an amazing project. I always had an appreciation for the older square body jimmy's. However my favorite suv's are the Explorers. The amount of work that went into this was amazing. People always wanna harp on how people pay people to do a job on a vehicle but a lot of the things that were done on your Jimmy takes a lot of skill and know how to do that I wouldn't have expected you to do. But given that this was your first project car (or was it the 240) either way you still did a lot of work yourself that most people would never attempt to do themselves.

This video actually makes me cry and truly makes me wish I had NEVER sold my 1993 Jimmy. It was exactly like your finished one. It was SLT, Forest Green, and even had the same kind of bug deflector on the hood. The only difference is mine had the spare tire rack on the back. Without the sound system upgrade this would match perfectly. I miss that little Jimmy of mine. This makes me miss it more. Great job.
