Probably more of historical interest than real use. Price is "make offer". I have no association.

Yow!! More like 1 of 225-ish, it's a GMC Jimmy Casa Grande http://www.tocmp.com/brochures/GMTrucks/1976/pages/1976%20GMC%20Jimmy%20Casa%20Grande-01_jpg.htm , much more rare than the Chevy Blazer Chalet. I'll have to ask Aaron S, the founder of the blazerchalet.com web site, where he got the total production figure of 1780 for all of these things. A GM rep provided me with official production numbers for the Chevy versions, 688 in 1976 and 867 in 1977 but they didn't know the Jimmy version's figures. Do the math and you come up with 225 Casa Grandes for both years.
I just contacted the seller, it's sold but they'll try to forward the buyer's contact info to me, hopefully we can add one more Casa Grande owner to our Yahoo Autos Group forum!

See my post # 27 here http://expeditionportal.com/forum/showthread.php?p=184301#post184301 for the origin of the "1,780" figure I mentioned in the post above.
Meanwhile, another GMC Jimmy Casa Grande just showed up on Craigslist http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/car/607667435.html photos below were brightened up in my computer. The seller's rep confirms it is actually a '76, serial number 719.
