Well guys seeing as how this is a very typical build for bscene i'm not gonna sugar coat anything.. my cab plus was static for about three years, then i wrecked it Oct 2010. i never got a pic of the carnage. Since it was basically totaled i decided to bag and bd it all in one go.

I started by stripping the interrior and the wrecked fron clip. Realized later i shouldn't have drilled all those plug welds....

my front clip was already trashed, the sawzall would've saved a few hours ha


once i got all the sheet metal stripped i saw the frame tweak.

I had a doner truck that i traded some old wheels for. im planning on cutting the frame and front clip off it and just replacing it rather than tryin to get it straight again.
