I have a great big pile of receipts that I haven't looked at since the piling began. I think they are worth something if some jack wipe decides to rearrange my sheet metal. I can show them all to the insurance guy and hope to get more than $900 bucks for it. Then buy it back for pennies on the dollar and take all the good stuff off for the new build. I should have bought one already restored, but what's the fun in that. Plus I don't trust other people's idea of restored. It's already over 40 years old, and full of po's crap repairs. When I'm done, I'll have something I dig, and will last decades. I don't want to even think about having to buy a new vehicle to replace the p.o.s. I bought new 5 years ago, because it's all worn out already. Plus try finding an 8' bed these days!
