good job! mine was also a rollover that i rebuilt. i bought almost everything from auto recyclers, except a few thing like the fenders,box sides,headlights. how do you say no to $36 bucks each for aftermarket fenders? mine was much worse off when i bought it.i had to cut my pillers down to the dash to replace the roof. i am in it for a wopping grand total of $3800.my supercharger cost as much as the whole truck completed LOL! it is also a lariet full loaded truck.love it and drive it.

I'm impressed!
BTW I do that kind of work for a living now, I am a frame tech, and I used to do a ton of rebuildables.
I once did an explorer that took EVERY panel except one quarter panel to repair after a roll over. Took a roof, tailgate, a left uniside, 4 doors, a whole nose, bumpers.
I sectioned 2 ZR-1 Corvettes together too!
If you don't mind the "salvage title" and the BS to get it reinspected, if your state requires it) and you have the time and resources to do it, there are some great deals out there. It's onl totaled because the insurance company feels it is cheaper to pay you than repair the vehicle. That being said, I have had guys who bought/repaired totaled cars send me stuff (remember I only do frame repair as a business I am not a body shop) and I have sent it back saying I'm not fixing it it's too far gone you can't pay me enough do do it!
Tell your Dad I said good job, and you have done good work too!
