truck in sig got hit and totalled, i bought back from ins basically cause i wouldnt feel good to know it might get crushed. it is a factory turbo, 2wd, recent e40d, 4.10 rear, 104k miles. i have replaced the truck and i am scratching my head on what to do with the truck??? a friend has spoke up wanting whats left of body and possibly the rear axle. that leaves me with whatever body he doesnt want, bent frame, engine trans etc... what do yall think

That sucks man, I'm sorry to hear about that. What did you replace it with?

You could probably get a grand for the turbo kit. The motor being a factory turbo will be worth a decent amount. Trans if replaced recently will be worth some. Or it could be the perfect time to IDI some other vehicle, a Bronco, older Ford truck, ect.

:eek:Man oh man, that's enough to make somebody sick. Glad your ok. I'm with everyone else, go for a repower, that way you can hang on to the ol' girl. By the way what did you hit to pop the knuckle off of the axle?

I would part it out and pu the money into your new rig. Personally, I would think you could get good money for the bed since it looks perfect. Not to mentin the rear bumper etc......

I'll take the tank from the bed.....;)

truck was parked, and got hit by a 08 mustang speeding a little bit i imagine. the guy was lucky to walk away, probably help him to be intoxicated. i will be parting this thing out, only sucky thing is it doesnt move around very easy.

Dang man, I'd bet that tranny is busted after getting hit that hard in park.
I'd be interested in that tranny though if it is actually any good.

6 Nebraska IDIs: I'd give you better than even odds the transmission is fine, but it should be easy enough to figure out if it's working or not. If the truck runs, just get one rear wheel off the ground and put it through all forward and reverse gears.

4Play: Sad to see something so nice get wrecked, hopefully you get some dough out of it to upgrade your new rig.

Good luck
