I don't think I've posted mine up yet. It's a 99.5 and was all done locally at my house. A lot of long nights after work, beer, and good times with friends! I've got about 8k miles on it now with no major issues.

I know this thread has been dead for a little bit but I am looking at getting back into a shorty or building one so if anyone is looking to sell I might be interested. Just pm details or message me on Instagram @monstermaple.

Description of the pictures attached.

So this happened dec 2017. Was out Xmas shopping the day before work I traveling towards in a straight lane approaching an intersection when a guy pulled into my lane from the left hand turn lane. Had about 10 feet of skid mark where I tried to avoid him. Airbags deployed. Gram damage. I got so hard it blew out my back window as a whole.


Insurance company paid me out. Didn’t even give me an option to buy back. But I pulled all my parts off it before it was towed away.

Truck was purchased at auction.

In my process of searching for a new single cab to start over I came across what looked like my old truck repaired in California. Had 15 seats, manual trans, and stack hole in the bed. Kinda hard to mistake. I messaged the guy and it was an auto body shop that repaired it. I contemplated buying it back. Cause it looked pretty good. But ended up passing cause I didn’t want to deal with insuring it as a salvage truck.


Months later I was buying some parts from a guy here in Vegas. And look what I found. The guy was super cool. I showed him the pictures of the wreck and gave him some info on what I had done to the truck.

All in all I’m glad I didn’t buy it back. The paint job looked poorly done. But I still haven’t found a good 6.0 candidate to replace this truck. I miss it quite often.

You and me both man. I saw a reply to this thread in my email inbox and figured I’d post what happened to mine.

I haven’t been able to find a clean low mile candidate since it happened. Dec 22nd 2017.

Look up Jimmy Hymel on Facebook. He's got a really nice one for sale still I believe.
