[@CR7659]

I was a little confused at first but then I realized it makes more sense to get it straight with the parts you can damage in the process, than cut off and try to make straight parts fit on there. One thing you avoid by not swapping the cab is it keeps the VIN tag that matches the title, no need to mess around with that to keep it legal.

[@raymondcollyear4773]

I'm glad to see how a real body man fixes thing the right way and not beat things out with a big hammer and then fill it with bondo like a bunch of so called car rebuilders are doing today. I enjoy watching your videos, keep them coming . Thank you for giving us some of your knowledge

[@davem7722]

I am amazed how you can find parts trucks and actually find multiple damaged units to repair with said parts truck, definitely a skill

[@drivecam101]

It's an age old formula people have used for decades. On average vehicles die for different reasons between the rust states and the southern states. In Chicago they rust away from the bottom up. This usually leaves good interiors, mechanicals, and upper sheet metal. In the south the interiors are destroyed by the sun, the mechanicals can be worn out, but the bodies rust free. Or like in this case the roof is smashed but that's the parts that are good on a dead Chicago truck. It takes skill and work to combine the two, but because they are junked for different reasons there's one good truck between the two. Possible two trucks out of three or three out of four. Maybe even four out of five. Hence the free parts.
