Yeah, that sucks... I wish I had been around about that time. I could've used pieces off that pickup's front clip. I still need an inner fender... Outer too if I can find an OEM piece. Have an aftermarket one laying around, but would rather go OEM if I had the choice.
No doubt buddy. If I had more time, there is alot more **** I'd have gotten, like the streering column out of the Burb, the bucket seats even though they weren't OEM, but the rack built for mounting the seats was pretty cool as a universal seat mount, the 87 Stand Alone TBI harness, and I could have had that good running TBI motor by unbolting it, then swinging my house lifting it out without the bossman knowing it and then scrap the truck, so that he wouldn't ask me for the motor, which is also why I didn't get the steering column.
The deal was, bossman wanted **** off the truck, but he wanted me and the kid to pull the **** for him while the bossman was doing our tows keeping money out of our pockets, so we'd be working for FREE as we did many times.
That's the big reason the kid bailed back home to TX. He was getting ripped off and working for FREE, so the kid wasn't going to let the boss have a damn thing. As he said, he's rather scrap it and why he tore up **** like the steering column, cut the seats that the boss needed. This is also why the glass and body got beat up on the 80, so the bossman wouldn't claim he wanted us to pull **** off the truck with our labor.
It was also the bossman that was responsible for things like the front Burb bumper and air compressor for the ARB locker disappearing. That made me and the kid both pissed off. It wasn't boss's trucks and he's selling **** off the truck that wasn't even his. Yeah, a fuct up deal, but that's the type of people we were working for and why I'm no longer there.
