Re: The crawler hauler (jeep puller) so far.
Hahaha! No problem man! They do look a lot alike, but why do I have the west coast mirrors on NY and thats a Cali truck with mini-mirrors!? I wish I had a california truck. The body on mine is pretty decent, but it is by no means mint.

Re: The crawler hauler (jeep puller) so far.
IDK, I doubt I'll fix it. The frame is twisted about 10 inches up front. Under the truck was pretty much mint and it is VERY hard to find good frames and bodies up here that aren't rusted to death. I have a friend interested in the drivetrain and cab for a 1-ton 4x4 project that he is working on. So majority of the truck will hopefully be saved. The floor pans and body mounts were 100% solid. That's why I was so sad when this happened.

A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.

Unfortunately between work and college, I don't have time to fix something like that. It sucks....
