Re: Neglected Pinz Contest - post them if you've got them
Neglect is more than skin deep. People wonder why every truck has to be inspected in person before purchase domestically. From welded exhaust flex couplers, electrical conduit being used for shock mounts to no shocks or limit straps and all the damage that entails. Over years we have seen some interesting "fixes" on trucks. Amazing what can be considered good running condition these days. The amount of damage you can do to a 712 by running with NO rear shocks or limit straps is amazing. Complete dis-assembly of 712 driveline means spare parts for everyone.

A heavy coat of paint will take care of the last one... like Play-Doh heavy!
