    Reminds me of Daltons Sgt Stubbs (R.I.P). Also, it’s good to see you making content now, I’ve been a long time viewer of Daltons channel and I remember seeing you in the Chevy derby wagon video with that Chrysler, and who could forget the dodge truck episode. Anyways, love the content Jim keep it up!

      An updates episode is on the way on the truck as well. Stay tuned!

    I commented already, but what the hell, im gonna be selfish and comment again. I saw you first on Daltons channel, and let me tell you, 95% of the content i watch is automotive related, and i watch all the big channels as well, but P.B.G. and junkyard digs are my favorites by far. I love watching new channels in their infancy and watching how fast some of them grow so fast, and i believe you have the personality and know how to do it too. Love the channel. Cant wait to see more!

    Love Col. Potter. Cool little ride. I worked at a Chevy dealer back in the day. I had to teach a girl to drive stick on one of these as a stick shift 2wd. Tracker is what she could get financing on. We used an unused road behind the dealership…back and forth for about 1/2 an hour. Not an easy car to learn stick on. She got it eventually though and went lurching into traffic in her new car

    I love the "i identity as a side by side" thinking about naming my truck, the "final frontier" As it is a nissan frontier pickup. I plan to drive it around the country to visit places and events to put on my UA-cam channel called CommunityExploreTube.
    I already did a video on hot air balloons on my channel as mentioned above.
    Jim, you do really well on camera. Thank you for entertaining us!

    I had a hardtop. Best little truck I've ever had. Sold it to a buddy who still drives it around.
    I could tell you a hundred adventures I had in that little thing. We used to say "95 horses of Geo FURY!" When we took off.

    I actually learned stick shit in an old fit truck with three on the tree and then my grandfather bought a Geo tracker for all the grandkids to learn normal manual transmission use. So this brought back some fun memories of running around the back 40 with grandpaw.

I got a 92 chevy sprint(geo metro) 1L 5 speed manual and even with a blown head gasket and almost compression the damn thing still runs and drives like its nobody's buisness. im def gonna take a page of the dalton/jim's floor repair books to fix some of the rust on it.

    I believe I heard on one of Dalton's episodes that your shop turns over used police cars. If that is the case, it might be interesting what you have to do to make them ready for the general public to buy. Newer cars that have many hours on them must have unique problems.

    • @the-inevitable-jim
      @the-inevitable-jim  4 дні тому +2

      It all depends on which government agency I get them from. Some come pretty "gutted" and others don't need anything. The hours don't mean squat as long as they have regular maintenance. That has been a huge misunderstood subject.

    Jim your reasoning makes total sense. One being i may be wrong but side by sides are not road legal. Where as the Geo tracker or Suzuki Vitara as we know it is. Didn't knew it came two wheel drive though. Why pay all that money when it does roughly what they can do. Okay so it's not a off-road vehicle. But if you don't yobo it it can do what you want with it with reasonable limits. Like the decals fun fact the US army star outside the US it has a circle around it not inside the US. Laughing cause I know where the hood latch is. Better yet for those who are familiar with Japanese pickups which is manual steering column shift. Now put them in a Peugeot 404 which is also manual steering column shift. Well let's just say things with the frogs aka french truly are viva la difference even in their vehicles. To explain the shift pattern on the Japanese pickups are from the steering wheel to the dashboard. Not so much the French oh no it's from the dashboard to the steering wheel.

    That Tracker had an advanced stage of the corn state cancer in places but there are a lot of cars in worse condition that are on the road. I did like the use of the nearly vintage Nebraska and Iowa floor pans. I don't think they've made county 1 Nebraska plates in 20 years

    Geo Tracker? in Europe (and possibly many other parts of the world) these are known as the Suzuki Vitara
    also those valve cover gaskets should NEVER be 'glued' with silicone, as that can actually make the issue of the gaskets slipping out (as happened to the one you removed) even WORSE
