Re: My truck is "totaled"...now what?

I tried every route I could and the insurance company was dead set on them totaling out my truck. I'm not happy but as they say, "the check is in the mail." I bought the truck back and I'm going to probably use it to fix another truck. I'm leaving in the morning to go buy a 72 LWB "Highlander" in blue and white. Suppose to be fairly solid truck with just over 100K actual miles. Best of all, factory AIR and tilt. Typical rust for this region but about what I had before, maybe better. I'll pull all the new parts from mine and swap them. Then, I have 2 local guys that want the 71. Fingers Crossed....
