hahahaha i saw that shit,hell i tried to buy it for that price but the damn dude never called me back on it

en route to its new home


spent all week redoing plumbing and wiring after the kid redid it after buying it from Thomas... got the turn signals working, polished the buffed the entire truck to try to restore it to how clean it used to look when Thomas had it. It's first North East show is this weekend at Low Rollers, we don't have enough time before hand because I need to get my truck ready yet too since I've been working on Pauls all week, but after LR I'm going to wet sand and buff the entire truck to a glass finish and get out some of the orange peel and dirt nibs... it looks tits once again now!

so you own it now colby? or a friend of yours?

No Paul from PA traded for it.

awesome!! good steal!! Bring that bitch to Dropt n Destroyed 5 end of Sept!! and your turd also Colby!

I want my dang Aluminum Oval from the stereo area.......... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr........

no, no, no... the stuff that all needed fixed was what the KID screwed up after buying it from Thomas. The kid took off the bed and tried to change everything, and in the process screwed up all the wiring, the plumbing for the air lines, leaks everywhere after he touched it, and dents around various spots. Still has the overheating issue (happened yesterday on the way to Low Rollers. it needed all that stuff fixed up, and the clearcoat could use a wet sand and buff a little farther to give it a glass finish

Damn colby sound like u had a mess or ur hands or what did the pervious owner even know what the hell he was doing did he even know how to work on a truck or what from the sounds of it he had no clue as to what he was doing. Should have gave him the book "how to work on a bagged truck for dummies:

Paul from PA's new truck....

Colby putting the logo on Pauls truck!

overheating issue - Check the relay behind the grill. The wires on the relay were melted together. That's the easiest fix of all!

BTW, I never saw the wheels that shiny before!

.....I miss it a little

nice to see it back in the family congrats to paul on the purchase

He had NO idea what he was doing, haha... when the kid put the bed back on he only put in 2 bolts and they weren't even tight, so I guess he was driving it around like that, somehow he bent the support brackets underneath the bed (for the bolt locations), but got those straightened them out at Paul's this past week. He put the fuel cell in back the wrong way and pinched all the lines, so it wouldn't even lay in the bed correctly, lol. The kid definitely needs a Minitruckin' For Dummies book!!

Yeah, we saw the relay and all in the fuse box there, but didn't look into it much yet. We were thinking about wiring the fan in directly so it's on all the time when the truck's on.

PS, Paul's girl Nina cleaned the wheels... they were covered in overspray and started to pit and all from the kid -- who told us he drove it a decent amount, and never washed it once since he bought it from you But yeah... Nina gets the props for that shine, she cleaned mine as well since I was up there all week helping them get the truck ready.

He's really happy with the deal... and he definitely made out on it. He didn't BUY it... he TRADED his 'bagged S-10 Xtreme for it even up, no money involved!
