That bites. The question is....who was at fault? Surely you would be the 'careful' driver in this situation. Sorry about your loss.

David, if you want to build a 67-72, come on up to Ft Worth and I'll give you a complete short bed rolling chassis to start with. You could put all of your goodies on it and start collecting sheetmetal.

Or, I have a neat little 64 Suburban sitting around. It has the lift gate type of rear hatch, 2 doors of course, just no engine or tranny. Come on up my way and I'll get you started on the next one.
