Re: Okay... (Damage photos up!)

For 2grand you should be able to buy your truck back and find another truck in better condition.There everywhere and i usually get them for 300-1000.Except for my current truck i actually forked over 2000 after i saw it sitting in the harley davidson dealers parking lot and chasing down the owner.

Re: Looking at agetting a '67 D200

Old street signs are perfect for replacing the rotten floors.The last 2 swepties ive had if you dropped anything while driving it would get run over by the tires!Look for rust on the inner fender in front of the door posts they rot fast.
