Idk, I didn't buy it but it's pretty haha :D

Even if it was a fixed wreck, if it runs good and doesn't look like it was just driven out from under the crusher, I don't know why ya wouldn't drive it. :?:

I appreciate it! :)

Top part not so bad, but the rockers are gone, as is part of the floor. Floor in bed has some pretty good cracks in it, aside form the fenders being trashed.

Hood is tweeked on donor, so the current one is gonna get sanded down and painted. Torn on the color. :/ Like the current color scheme, but leaning towards a 2 tone, with metallic gray as the base w/ black in the middle where the maroon is. Barb wire pin stripe. :D
