I lived in a condo complex. My 86 year old nieghbor drove thru my kitchen wall. It knocked the stove loose and caught the condo on foir. I lost everything I owned. The truck was in the carport. I couldn't get it out before the condo exploded. It looks worse than it really is. Need a repaint and some rubber. I already replaced the windshield. It is driveable. Got to have my boat towi'n vehicle!!!!!!!

Yeah, I am still pretyy PO'D. But, luckily no one got hurt. This whole deal is going to be tied up in court for a while. So, I will just kepp on trucki'. I also just bought a 68 2x Burb. Got plenty to keep me busy.

I've been wondering where you been hiding out at.
Always liked that truck, awsome paint combo that you never see.
Like said before...at least no one was hurt...and good luck with the insurance b@stards.
