We was up at the ranch this weekend. Getting ready to come back down this morning and was backed up to the cabin which is on a hill. While loading up one of the kids knocked it out of gear and took it for a ride:yikes2:. At least they all were in the truck and the airbag didnt go off. After getting pulled out by a John Deere and doing some field work to it, I drove back down to the house. https://www.cervinis.com/large.aspx?img=1001_1_big.png this is what the front will look like when I am done.

Isn't it amazing how strong that little tree is? It seems to me like the truck would've ripped that little sucker right out of the ground and drove away with it.
Glad everyone is okay. That's scary when stuff like that happens. It's just that fast!

You could go to the salvage/junk yard and save some $$$$ and probably do the job for 500- 1000 if you are not picky about paint colors matching.

I picked up a whole white front clip for $150, got the header panel, smooth bumper and Lightning valance for $140. :happy-dancing: Next will be my PHP chip, finally. I am gonna get it all back together and take it to get sprayed. The shop told me they would spray the whole thing and fix a few other small dents for $1500. I got to order my dually fenders and some other stuff first before that. My trucks new name will be White Out. The only dark on it will be the smoked headlights and tint.
