It’s been a really long time since I’ve updated this thread and there have been a lot of updates done to the truck during my absence unfortunately I got lazy posting. Since this was updated I’ve made several runs to Cruising the Coast, 2 years in a row to C10’s in the Park and long hauled the Power Tour this year and have had a blast with it. Well all things must come to an end I guess. I was headed home from C10’s in the Park back in September, running down the highway doing about 55 mph and a drunk driver decided to turn left in front of me with me only about 100 ft from him. At 55 mph you are moving 80 ft a second, so I had nowhere to go. Needless to say, she took a big hit, front end bent, cab bent, left bedside bent and frame is toast. To add insult to injury I had just added a Gear Vendors Overdrive and a new Denny’s driveshaft just a few days before. I’ve owned this truck almost 20 years. Not to worry sometime you have to make lemonade out of lemons, so I have acquired another project and I have stripped my blue truck and will swap everything over to it and will be using a full QA1 suspension, Dakota RTX gauges and other goodies. I may repair and reuse the body at some point down the line but in the meantime the body is going into storage. I’ll start a new build page soon. A few photos of the carnage, it’s still sickening months later.
