Ewwwww - thats a REAL bummer man. I hope your wife and the other driver were
not injured!? Thats the most important part! I would rebuild the truck if
possible. If it was me, I don't care how much damage was done. I would
rebuild using whatever of the old original parts that were still good. The
truck looks salvageable. But then again thats just me. YOu might enjoy
getting a brand new truck! Good luck with it all. I hope the insurance
company doesn't give you troubles.
