I was heading my way home from work and didn't even have to work. Also, the bonus that this was the night before new years EVE. Had to work the next day too. =|

That looks all too familiar. I wadded mine up two times in two weeks when I was a kid. :p: Taking out that same side...
 






It was a bad decision. I can't get into any trouble with driving otherwise i get points taken off and a big ticket, as well my parents do too. Got a new mounty out of it though, it was pretty costy on my side, but well worth it! =)
 






Ouch. My brother rolled my '98, but we knew the manager at a body shop who fixed it up in no time. One thing that is nice is how well they built trucks back then. In a head on collison these plastic cars nowaday would be crushed like a can.
 






well yeah, cause cars nowa days have the crash points to help protect the passengers and driver. I woulda been fine, but the air bags deployed and it isn't cheap to get those repacked and all. so we decided to toss it. of course taking all the spare parts that we could sell, like the tires and rims which were actually brand new.
 






Ya, when my brother rolled he hit a dirt embankment which is what caused him to roll over. But we put a brush guard on it before hand so the airbags didnt deploy. Saved us some cash and save him some neck problems.

To bad yall cant fix it. Sell what you can and spend it on another. Or do like my brother did and buy F-250 :D.
 






lol smooth. I got myself a mounty, and i like it a lot. bought it with only 79k miles on it too. i wanna get a push bumper and a CAI with a new exhaust, but i'm trying to figure this stuff out and how to get the correct parts!
 






All I have added to my '98 is a brush guard and a K&N Air intake. And if your looking for parts autoanything.com is a nice place.
 






Sweet stuff! Thanks! I'll check it out.
