That's what I thought when I bought an F150 for a work truck. Only problem is times are tough and I still got a crappy ole F150. If I was in a better position I would buy another chevy and just drive my Furd to my buddies scap yard.

Hiya m8, I won't hijack the thread (well not too much!)

Yeah all welding finally done. Done all the filler work, doesn't look too bad. Bodyshop got it in primer and blocked off then gave me a ridiculous price to put top coat on- 4k !! In the process of finding somewhere to paint it, my garage isn't big ennuff and a mate's gonna do it for me!

The tear down on your truck looks awesome, it's all time, money and the love of a good woman  ;)

Can't wait for the next set of pics!!
