the frame is likely diamond shaped from the pass side being pushed back -- looks like a lotta good parts on the truck if you can get it for 700 or so salvage value!

What do you think we should go for as far as total it and salvage or how much do you think we should be bargaining for? I'd like to get as much as I can from the insurance company and still keep the truck. My dad is getting a wild hair to build a street rod with it.

Well I called you and got nothing but voicemail. The insurance dude called today and got my statement, they're going to go see the truck Tuesday. Went to see that dually today again @3:00. Started it up, checked for leaks. It's a 93 come to find out, 129k. Fleetguard filters all around. Clean under the hood started up real quick. These trucks are quiet by the tailpipe with a muffler. That damned thing is gonna die, quick, if I get the truck. BWAAAAAA.....BWAAAAAAAA.....BWAAAAAAAAAA......BWAA AAAAAAAAA.....BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

Dude that stinks. At least your all right and nobody got hurt. I loved the way the truck looked. I also hope when I can drive I get one like that.
