Thankfully my roomate didnt get hurt when his truck slid off the road. He said it was a weird feeling watching the bronco still attached to the trailer sliding past him on its roof. If not for the cage the roof would have been totally smashed in. Somehow I still have practically no damage on the drivers side but the pass. side has seen better days.
Considering that it rolled over at 40-50mph, I think it held up pretty well. Most likey there will be a body swap or something.

I drove it on the trailer, but the throttle linkage is messed up. I talked to a guy that has a white 92 f250 with a kingpin 60 swapped in and he only wants 1500. If I can sell all my stuff, I'll get that and start swapping stuff.
I'll get it all back together.
hopefully
Seems to be OK and in good spirits about it...
