You all see a rust bucket...I see an LS donor

He has been in Parker, driving around like that for a couple of weeks. I am scared. to look under the truck.

Looked like the gas tank was dragging the ground when I drove by.

Not sure what year that is but I have a '99 that was my former work truck. The frame under the 1/2 ton is horribly inadequate in that area. Mine has had to be welded and repaired on 2 different occasions.

how does a truck get that rusty in Arizona

It doesn't. Bed and bumper rust could be due to life as a pool guy that spills chemicals all over the bed, but that doesn't explain the front fenders and rockers. I could never live in the NE or mid west due to the effect the salt has on vehicles. It's disgusting.

He would need to park up a steep hill to find a level spot to sleep for the night.

Pretty sure the plates are Michigan. That would explain the rust.

Definitely had out of state plates.

What do you think? Rebar or form stakes welded on the frame.

I attempted to rebuild a front suspension on an east coast car one time. Yeah, that was fun. It would not come apart. Cut everything out and replaced with west coast upper and lower control arms, bolts, and new bushings. Learned a lesson on that one.

Could be on the YouTube channel "Just rolled in". I find those video depressing.

In working trucks, those things spit manifold bolts like sunflower seeds. Doing them in the truck is fun, but pays ok...doing them on the stand, cake walk

Yeah...now add salt. Nothing is fun when you add salt. (or mag chloride brine for the nitpickers).

we are just starting to see how bad that brine is. road salt was bad enough and if you hit a wash with under spray a few times a winter it was OK.

the brine they spray all the time. snow or not, they spray. it is always on the road and turns to dust. that is getting everywhere, places where washing does not work completely. vehicles are starting to rot like ziebart days.

and people still drive fast, find the spot that still had ice, wreck, and then blame anyone other then the idiot holding the wheel. but, they were probably smart enough to wear their seat belt. the car told em to.

Sounds like you just don't have any sense of adventure.

The shop that did mine both times but different locations was booked 7 months in advance doing 2 vehicles a day in addition to the commercial truck frame work they do.

About 4:45 yesterday I was heading North on 95 and that truck was stalled going South in front of the Safety Center entrance on 95, causing a small backup. Wasn't there about an hour later heading home.

It was gone today. Maybe it’s still driving around somewhere.

I bet he regrets picking up that fat girl at the bar

Maybe he needed a one ton truck?

That and taking the 40 into town.

 

[DLC]

That doesn’t look like a bad day….

more like poor life choices….

 

[Smitty7]

Shit, I live in N.Y. With a mig and a couple metal scraps I'd get another 2 years outta that truck. That was somebodys pride and joy at one time.

 

[havasujeeper]

Nothing a couple of 2x4's couldn't fix!

 

[TonyFanelli]

You think that guys git it bad, this one's wheel fell off his house!

 

[mash on it]

I believe I found the little brother of the first truck, in Ash Fork-
