What were they thinking?

While pulling your truck apart, did you find something that made you shake your head? So far with the Cameo, I found about 15 toggle switches...have no idea what they were for, as they all ended up in the trash bin, an alt meter under the dash, and 5 original alt guages in the glove box...perhaps all that crappy wiring had something to do with the guage not reading correctly?
A rotted grant steering wheel, and a ton of other crap.

Body related, someone filled in the holes for the mirror and fender emblem on the passenger side, but left them on the drivers side, spray painted/primered the whole truck black over the original paint, and then sanded it down and lord knows what else, giving it a horrible look (see avatar).

The worst so far is holes in the front apron where they mounted fog lights, and a hole in the roof where I imagine they had a spotlight. They attached eye hooks to the front of the bed for tiedowns I guess, and bought a braqnd new front bumper...

What in the hell were they doing? I want to find the guy who thought, "Hey, I want a spotlight and foglights on this truck, its going to look awesome."
