1987: “The frame is cracked on both sides directly across from each other. Location: the center of the first (forward) bed body mount,it is corroded so badly I would be afraid to weld it even using long plates on each side of the box frame. The vehicle is now unusable with the bed pushing up against the cab. I am an automotive enthusiast and business major working in engineering and studying welding and chassis engineering and am competent fabricator with tig, mig and stick processes, I have knowledge about metal and cars.”
