yanked the flat bed off.

Sucker did NOT want to come off! I had my fabricator come by and torch the bolts last week and a buddy come by with his backhoe.... we picked the rear of the truck off the ground tring to get it off. Finally up off the ground about 1' he shook the bucket and it came loose. Thankfully not smacking the cab

Thanks bud! I know! Ive seen wayyyy to many with a early death this summer with the high scrap prices! I wish I would have chased a couple trucks down had I known I was going to get into this project.

None yet, We got hammered with snow so Ive been pushing show and hauling it away the past few days. I doubt Ill touch it till after the 1st. Im going to pull the spare cab out and start on that (fixing the flaws) Then hopefully it will warm up a little and Ill be able to get my 01 out of the barn and wheel the 90 in to start tearing it apart

Stay tuned!

 

Let me figure out the best way to ship it and I'll let you know.

This is just the plaxtic center section of teh grill. Looks like your missing one.
