Re: you might drive a squarebody when

When you can stand on the ground, inside the engine compartment when working on the engine...although, having a straight 6 helped!

When your truck explodes from being hit in the side saddle tanks after NBC had planted an incendiary device.

Re: you might drive a squarebody when

Have rocker panels and cab corners full of great stuff.
Cracked dash pad.
Bench seat that's a little or whole lot of missing cushion.
The brightest gm dash lights known to man... Lol
Brake lights that sometimes work due to the awesome grounding in the rear.
Cab mount bolts that take on an hour glass shape and snap off.
Kinked hoods near the hood hinges.

Re: you might drive a squarebody when

My 74 short bed had what my brother called a bifold hood. He said, " that's pretty cool that you don't have to open the whole hood to check the coolant".

Re: you might drive a squarebody when

When your tailgate drops when you go around a sharp corner

When your box jumps 6" of the frame when you hit a pothole

When your fuel gauge dances in sync with the radio

When your afraid to step on the door jamb for fear of putting your foot through it

You had to re-assemble it in the pasture that you found it in.

When you have to smack the front of your hood like the Fonz to get it open.

When you swap your rear springs left to right and have to run a full tank to keep the bed level.
