Re: Just another day - newest truck is here
This one's for parts - it's too far gone to be worth saving, really. Once I get done pulling the parts I need the rest of it will be up for grabs. I got it for the hydraulics, my flatbeds getting turned into a dump!

Re: Just another day - newest truck is here
Man, I think you could fix it up! Put a stock bumper on it, some new tires, cruise around.

![]() The amount of effort required to save the cab (and replace all the other panels that are too far gone) isn't worth it, because the frame is twisted and rusty and there's really not much else going for it.

Re: Just another day - newest truck is here

Re: Just another day - newest truck is here
It's got a few smaller cracks and the rim is completely worn free of paint, but it's not bad overall. I can take a few better pics of it in the morning.
I will also take a few good shots of just how bad the cab is, it's so bad it's funny!

Re: Just another day - newest truck is here
That is a serious front bumper. Looks to be 150 lbs of scrap alone.
