Some may remember this thread.
and what happened to Hardmans White typhoon.
Well the truck no longer has the custom pinstripping it once did. I have seen pics of the "new" truck and it doesn't look the same. Pics to come once I get permission from Hardman who has had another very tough week and a half himself once again.
I will say even without seeing the truck in person Scott UR50SLO did a great job and dealt with insurance and went way above and beyond to make this happen. It has not been easy from the start as insurance automatically wanted to assume this was done intentionally for a new paint job. They even called and interviewed me on a recorded call over it. After the interview ended I was sure the tell them how much I thought State Farm was a waste of time and I would never recomend them to anybody or use them myself and how the guy I was talking to was obviously being lazy and taking his sweet time on this as my buddy was out a vehicle as they told him NOT to remove any of the "new" paint so he could at least drive it.

Next plans for the truck are to come down here where some engine upgrades are to be installed.
So far the truck has
I will say the new mods involve a new cam, turbo, throttle body and a box of aluminum he wants me to weld up into something creative.
Here is video from homecoming, as this truck was treated like the whore it once was.
