You know lets change the set up of this discussion. Lets start talking about different ways people still put their old bolts(or parts of bolts) to work. Or the way things get rigged on site for a purpose... may not be stock but it is what keeps these rigs running. for example... When you can't afford to put pre-cut lumber in, 8-2x10's wil make a pretty good looking bed or how you mounted an engine hoist in the bed or maybe even the fact that '68 c-10 rear shock mounts even though they are 2 inches shorter than stock for a '66 C-20 they will fit and work nicely with no cutting or welding.


Parts may come and parts may go but a good truck always stays the same
