save all your reciepts and keep a log book of all improvements/repairs. pay yourself a fair shop rate for labor. once they saw I had over $8K in my truck they backed off and cut me a check.

Glad you're OK!!! So, are you doing a frame off now??? Or just a repair and repaint to get it back on the road again?
Im just going to get it back on the road for now.In the future I want to paint the hole thing and compleatly restore it.

That looks great! I didn't think the hood survived! It looks like it fits perfect.

Re: Sad story

Just ran across this one. That's one cool truck you guys picked up. I've seen pics of it in the past but I have a feeling it's gonna be looking a whole lot better after this small face lift. Glad to hear you're ok and that insurance was quick to deal with the situation. Any ideas on what the new color scheme is going to be?
