Nah, too costly and very high maintenance involved,I think the body work has been tampered with as looks abit false for my liking.:(
There was a truck in that picture....:confused: I'll have to take another look Steve........:D
Don't know about the truck, but i want to hire your plumber!
Do you have a shot from the passenger window to help with the decision process?
Dunno - there are some bends and creases that might need a bit of hand adjusting and finessing and more then a little time spent on a new bed
that truck will cost too much money to restore. when you have it just as you want it it will see a newer truck with a bigger exhaust and leave you on the side of the road.:3dSMILE:
From what I see, the headlights and rearend are in good shape.
LMAO - - - - a classic, Barb, a real Classic :cool:Quote:

Are the headlamps original or aftermarket?
I need to adjust the headlights! :D
I need a closser look!:3dSMILE:
that cant be why they say " dont do crack !!! "

It's a good thing that Barb is here to keep our minds pure:HMMM:
:LOL: i am just as corrupt as the rest of you.:3dSMILE:
unfortunately this is my inspector.
Don't they call that "Cross Pollenating"?
Barb, you been using Bob's library of pic's???
Looks a little beat up. Must have had a hard life, but the "bones" are good.
Pictures sometimes tell you a lot but a hands on inspection is always the best way to really find out how structurally sound they are and how much they've been "driven" !
Hey Barb,I need some custom overalls like that please. Since damaging my knees I have put 45 kg's on around that region and absolutely nothing fits anymore.:CRY:
i know how to fix s that truck:3dSMILE:looks like a keeper to me .. if not at lest few hot laps around the block till i broke it or it killed me:3dSMILE::3dSMILE:
pat in your shape i would be scared to do more than one lap.:D
HEY how do you know what shape i am in:HMMM: i am not so old or frail like some old men that set on the porch and talk a good game:DQuote:

You may need to upgrade if you get it.....
Dear Tech Support:
Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0.
I soon noticed that the new program began unexpected child processing that took up a lot of space and resources.
In addition, Wife 1.0 installed itself into all other programs and now monitors all other system activity.
Applications such as Poker Night 10.3, Football 5.0, HuntingAndFishing 7.5, and Racing 3.6.
I can't seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the background while attempting to run my favorite applications.
I'm thinking about going back to Girlfriend 7.0, but the uninstall doesn't work on Wife 1.0.
Please help!
Thanks ...Troubled User -------

Dear Troubled User:
This is a very common problem. Many people upgrade from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0,
thinking that it is just a Utilities and Entertainment program. Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and is designed by its Creator to run EVERYTHING!!! It is also impossible to delete Wife 1.0 and to return to Girlfriend 7.0.
It is impossible to uninstall, or purge the program files from the system once installed.
You cannot go back to Girlfriend 7.0 because Wife 1.0 is designed not to allow this.
Look in your Wife 1.0 manual under Warnings-Alimony-Child Support.
I recommend that you keep Wife 1.0 installed and work on improving the configuration. I suggest installing the background application YesDear 99.0 to alleviate software augmentation.
The best course of action is to enter the command C:\APOLOGIZE because ultimately you will have to do this before the system will return to normal anyway. Wife 1.0 is a great program, but it tends to be very high maintenance. Wife 1.0 comes with several support programs, such as CleanAndSweep 3.0, CookIt 1.5 and DoBills 4.2.
However, be very careful how you use these programs. Improper use will cause the system to launch the program NagNag 9.5. Once this happens, the only way to improve the performance of Wife 1.0 is to purchase additional software. I recommend Flowers 2.1 and Diamonds 5.0, but beware because sometimes these applications can be expensive. WARNING!!! DO NOT, under any circumstances, install SecretaryWithShortSkirt 3.3. This application is not supported by Wife 1.0 and will cause irreversible damage to the operating system. WARNING!!! Attempting to install NewGirlFriend 8.8 along with Wife 1.0 will crash the system. (see Wife 1.0 manual, Apologize, High Maintenance & Secretary with Short Skirt)
Tech thats funny :LOL::LOL::LOL:
I agree - - - - that was a good Saturday morning kick starter
thanks
Great Way to start my day,still laughing!Thanks.
I think that if all that was left was a rusty gas cap laying on the ground to try to rebuild the entire truck from, I would give it a shot with a helper that looked like that!!!
