Different truck, this one is new and someone wants to purchase his other one which turned out very well, I drove it a bit and BION you would never know how bady that truck was smashed. His doesn't cut corners with his rebuilds (you may find that hard to believe), but I know how careful he is, and usually he drives them for years, but having a sale waiting and a truck with only 280 KM's is a no brainer. Just sayin'

I have no doubt that will track straighter than it did when it left the factory.

Should have this on the road in a week or so. Look at the size of that engine, and the frame is huge also. That picture with the guy lifting the wheel is the old frame, which could have been fixed real easy just a slight bend right at the front but …….has to be new.


Cab is inside on the lift ready and waiting. This is a shot of the new frame btw

Looks like a fun project.

Big brakes too!

Fork lift comes in handy.
Let's see, where did I leave mine?

That powertrain is huge.

I can help but wonder about the cost and availability of the Denali trim pieces and such.
I had heard "Denali" was a native word for people who have no concept of money.

They are an expensive truck, not something I'd ever want, but my pal makes a living
with this stuff. Neither of the last two trucks took much to repair (surprise) but the body parts aren't all that expensive. So he buys them right and has a warehouse full of left over parts, so he mostly just buys the same vehicle over and over and goes to his own
warehouse for a lot of those parts. The average guy might not do so well with these
heavily damaged rigs. You may have seen the last one I posted a year ago or so. Most
people would not believe a repair was possible on that one. imo

Cool. if he can get all the parts, then it's pure gold as the resale value should be high.

Funny how so many young guys around here driving a brand new Danali as snow plows and tow trucks.
