So I decided to get my old 7.3 into the shop and start tearing it apart and see about fixing it up. Here are a couple pics of the progress so far. Front frame seems to have a slight bend to it.

I think you were just holding the camera at a funny angle Troy. It all looks good. Should buff right out!

He ran a stop sign on a country road doing about 20 and broadsided a car that was doing about 60 they said. No one was hurt severely luckily.

Good morning Jay! I think your right. Kind of sad how everyone stopped chatting and never stop by anymore. What did you say to offend them?

Good afternoon guy(s). Sure looks nice out but I suspect it's an illusion.
