Day I bought truck. Has blown trans. And yes I towed it home in the snow!!

Next day at friends shop. Replace tranny

Around 3 am after trans swap, test drive and getting gas.

Months later decide to redo body an paint. Paint/body is worse than in the pictures. Started with the roll pan. Didn't like the style and the fiberglass pan it had when I bought it.

eBay tag box welded up and grinded corners

Rollpan welded/molded to bed. Tag box welded in and grinded.

Shot of rear the way I bought it
