Time for a new cub hauler!!!

Time for a new cub hauler!!!

Post by Gorilla »

This is the result of hitting a big a$$ tree limb that was down in the road, in the rain, at 5:55 am.

I'm sure glad you weren't hurt. Chalk that up to another of Gods blessings.

On the other hand I have seen worse put back on the road when there was still real body shops. today's economy has eliminated them though. I would tend to want to buy that one back -- Make a winter project and resell it.

Fuel company I worked for in the early 90's bought a ford 1 ton tool truck that was rolled . door, fender, grill. and the cab .... Cab was smashed down to the seat top BTW no one hurt just fired over that one. the driver parked it in neutral, and it ran away down over an embankment.

I cleared the limb clean off the road!!!!! the cab is tweaked way out of square, the dash is broke, the firewall is tweaked, etc. I'm glad they totaled it, I don't think it could ever be fixed right without changing the cab.

New cub hauler!!!! Oh Man.
I'm at the West Virginia Oil and Gas Expo in Morgantown and there's stuff outside.
One of the trailer manufacturers is using a 63 B-Model as display...... sweet!

I still want one!!! Just when you think you're out..... they drag you back in!
The doors are locked though, darn.
