Sweet! Good to hear you are back in business! Looking forward to seeing the new truck in action. Let us know when you have the truck almost ready. I might have a little something for the back window! Vince

The drivers side rear was crunched...tail gate, side and box are messed up.
A guy here that rebuilds wrecks may want to buy everything when i get all my stuff off of it...since it was not turned in to the insurance Co, it still has a clear title.

She is right now cuz I'm still fumbling around trying to sell 5 things at once and don't have the $$ or room to bring her in my garage until I move all the things that are in the way. Ahh well.

Btw, in answer to a previous question you had asked me...
Rear frame is notched in order to retain stock suspension travel...

And the front...

Poured it in an empty windex bottle and sprayed the interior everyday until it was empty. I can't find it online, but I think I bought it right off the shelf at the parts counter at the Chevy dealership.

Those are actually 16" stock rims in the picture. With my 20's I get more breathing room but as you can see even 16" can fit without to much trouble.
