Thanks! It's actually a Sub. Picked her up for $4300.00 with just a few minor issues to deal with. It came with a big ol' smile from the wife too.

Nice purchase. Stick around. Dang squirrels.

Dig into your imagination-banks...I was golfing one day and as I walked down the fairway I hear squirrels up in the tops of the big oak trees getting acorns. Then I hear the leaves and branches rustling around, and then a squirrel grunt, and then the branches began to rustle lower and lower and then whump! a squirrel hit the ground with a thud, saw me, shook its head and scurried up the tree...lol... That would have been a good candidate for a squirrel/tree photo.

Don't go anywhere George! Nice ride you got there. Yeah-never trust a squirrel. They aren't dependable unless you are feeding them.

Yup, it sucks. Hope she had insurance! It aint worth much to some people but it is a sweet truck. Anyway, changing the motor will be easier with the clip off for whoever buys it. Or.......it wont sell now and I could get back to it in a few years. Only the good Lord knows whats really going on.

Yeah, right after I posted it for sale.

Wow, you OK? Damn drunk drivers never think about the consequences. We had a family friend pass away several years ago after being hit head on by one.

Truck doesn't look too bad.

Maybe her insurance will give you the money needed to keep working on the project?
