#TruckTuesday is brought to you by Colin Gorman and his 1972 #gmcjimmy. If you've been following along, you know how fond we are of late model Jimmys, *cough* @saabkyle04llc *cough*, and Colin's classic #Jimmy is just too cool not to share. "I was working with a friend on a job in Reno, NV and we were on the subject of looking for a tough vehicle for his son to drive. I hopped on the local classifieds page and found this 1972 GMC Jimmy for sale and showed it to him and said, "this is a great deal, if you don't buy this I think I'm going to have to!" My friend's eyes lit up when he saw the GMC advertisement and said, I can't get him that my kid would destroy it. So, true to my word I had to go buy it. I shot down to a small town just outside of Carson City, NV and met with the owner and struck a deal and trailered the truck home. Once I got it back to town I freshened up the 327 powerplant, rebuilt the 350 automatic transmission, and changed some seals in the np205 transfer case. Removed the stock half ton axles and swapped them with a more stout set of 1-ton axles and replaced the leaf springs. Added a set of military 37" tires and she was ready to cruise the vast deserts of Las Vegas. Top on or off, she's been a blast to drive and work on and always gets tons of attention everywhere I take it." Share your stories with us for a chance to be featured! #oreillypowered

We were going to hit you with a #MoparMonday with today's submission, BUT did you know, the term Mopar does not technically apply to Jeeps built before 1987? So this bad boy just missed the cut-off. Check out this 1978 Jeep Cherokee workhorse sent to us from Mike. "Straight 6. Original 40 thousand mile truck. I bought it 2 years ago for $400 and have only had to do minor tune-ups to it. Runs like a champ. Used to be a town truck for a local school in the 70s." We love a truck with a story! Thanks for sharing, Mike. #mopar #jeep #vintage #classic #jeeple

You can't deny it, these old Studebaker's just. look. cool. This 1959 Studebaker Deluxe 4E7 owned by Al Musetti is no exception. "My Nonno (Grandfather) bought this 1959 Studebaker Pickup brand new in 1959. My Nonno and Dad taught me to drive it when I was 12 Years old. I did a totally stock restore on it when I was 24 years old at 300,000 miles in 1981. I Love this truck. Still enjoying and loving it today." Thank you for sharing, Al!

Happy Labor Day from O'Reilly Auto Parts!
