Lol thanks, I've learned I've gotta have a sense of humor workin with this truck. Yeah, I've given up on fixing the cab, bed may be salvageable, I'll see once I get it off/if I can get it off. On the bright side, I doubt I would've been able to get every wire on this truck for less than 250 from a junkyard, salvage vehicle parts have skyrocketed in the past few months. A 5.0 6 months ago was 450 no core and now it's 700 and there's now a core charge. Today, while I'm out getting more formula (story of my life. She eats as much as I do, she's already grown so much in the last 4 months I feel old at 23 lol) I'm going to see how much a set of torx bits are. If they're too much I've got a grinder and cut off wheel, but I'd rather not have to drag out 200' of extension cord. If I can't get one of those junk car guys to get it without a title then I'll have fun cuttin it to bits. Like I said, for 250 I'm getting a lot of parts and wires.
