Just crossed my mind today,that my Ty is sporting a few parts that it wasn't born with.

For example,I have a parted out SGT radio,a Syclone's bumper cover,and a rear corner cladding off of a burnt and dead Ty.

How many Frankenstien trucks are here?

Re: Parts is parts

Lets see here, what parts of my truck were pulled from another?

- Front bumper support came from a junkyard Ty in Connecticut
- Cladding is all original to my knowledge, but certain spots are repaired with donor plastic that Smaug got from somewhere
- Its original wheels were replaced with a polished stock set off a California Ty, which were then replaced with a set of Borbets off a Ty in Pennsylvannia.
- I'm not even sure which air intake crossover tube is on there at this point, much less where it came from.

Other than that, most of the truck is either original with the truck or brand new aftermarket stuff. It could be worse.

Re: Parts is parts

Only about four or five pieces of cladding are original. The fenders,grille and hood are new. The tailgate, engine and transmission came from a parts truck. I need a console and dash still...

Re: Parts is parts

I can be on this list now! :lol: Aaron and John were teasing me for how stock my truck was (aside from the paint.)

It now has a donor upper intake and upper intercooler. :tup: I think they were on Aaron's Sy #1084, but don't know if they were that truck's originals.

Soon I'll be replacing... the stock FPR. :lol: That's how stock my truck is. :tup:
