looks like a BD truck with a bunch of shit removed to me, no different than 1/2 the trucks on here that are driven every day

well so far i've ran across duct tape on a couple of bags, welds that didnt penetrate, a a home depot light switch turning on the compressor with extension cord running to the switch and compressor, silicone covering a hole in the oil pan, and the only thing holding the tailskin on is bondo. so maybe mine is just half tore apart and its actually like half the rides that are driven everyday, if thats the case i guess i have the wrong idea on what things "should" look like

i don't understand the duct tape on bags part... i've heard of this before but i guarantee it didn't help at all ... also how come you are just now finding all this stuff.. My only thing is -- it seems like all too often i see someone on here who has bought a truck and then put up picks of all the "hacked stuff" -- almost all garage built mini's i've ever seen isn't perfect.

Sounds like a hack job to me, I mean bondo holding in the tailgate skin! Never seen a home light switch in a truck before thats a good one. By the way there is a difference between "not perfect" and a "hack job".

Wow? Seems like someone was in a hurry to bag that thing?

Good luck!
