    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

    My very first vehicle was a neon pink 1994 geo tracker 4x4 with an automatic. Let’s just say that as a 16yr high school boy, it didn’t help my image… but that rig never let me down!

      @ oh 100%! It’s funny what 20 years of maturing will do to you because I would have 0 shame driving it today. Sadly, the person I sold it to totaled it shortly after they got it and it went to the big scrapyard in the sky.

    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 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  12 годин 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.

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.

    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

    • @willyum789

      I specifically like to use the older plates as they are a bit heftier and not so flimsy because the have the actual stamped numbers and letters which give them rigidity.
