I had a 42 3/4 ton flatbed that had a lot of bad rust in all the wrong places. I was showing a friend of mine some photos of my restore and was puzzled why he merely watched and nodded in silence.

Three days later a roll on tow truck arrived with a complete identical truck in fairly good condition but had been exposed to the weather, but 20 times better than the truck I started with.

That's what friends are for.
