alright its been a little piece since the last time i was on here. so to start things off everyone remembers the tornadoes that ripped through western tennessee back in early april well it killed 14 people in the county i live in. it took the house the farm and most importantly the BRONCO! the body is trashed theres no hope for it the truck landed bottom up. i have thoroughly been through the truck and all the driveline pieces seem to be in good shape but the motor needs a rebuild due to a trip in river before the nader hit. now with all that said what is the best thing to do next? it has been discussed to put a tube body on it with sheetmetal between the tubes and make it a crawler but i'm not real sure so i'm askin for any and all suggestions from everyone that reads this post.

Thats a damn shame about what happened, do you have any pics of the truck? The choice to rebuild it or turn it into a crawler is yours, it all depends on how much you want to put into it. Did you get any insurance money?

naw the insurance companies around here are really stingy and all i had was liability on that thing cause it was a tank and if somebody hit me there would be nothin to worry about but since a tornado hit me thats a whole nother story.
