Just put a deposit down on it the other day. White on white with about 122k miles. I'll post more pictures after I pick it up. The guy is just waiting on the title so I'm about a week out from having her in my garage. It's nice to be back in the game after losing my green '93 :(

Yeah, I tried looking to see where it was a little while ago but I was unable it to find it. It got totaled over a year ago and the insurance company bought it. Someone on here saw it on an auction website or something but other than that, I have no idea.

Lady pulled in front of me and stopped in the middle of the road and I didn't have time to stop. She didn't even know I was coming. I went to swerve around her and was going to make it but she jumped forward at the last second and I hit the driver side of her front end. Smashed my front end in, bent the front passenger pillar, etc. It bent the frame rails pretty good.

I ran a carfax on it and the last place it was reported was in Oregon...so it may be in a autoyard somewhere in Oregon? Who knows though. It had some decent goodies on it and a mint interior.

Welp, she's in my possession now. I'll be posting some pictures of it either today or tomorrow. 122k miles and I only paid $7k for it. Pretty good deal since it runs and drives great.

Congrats on getting another one! Hopefully who ever got the totaled ty will rebuild it. I have a rebuilt salvaged title for my ty. The previous owner had to get the frame straightened. I'm really glad he saved it though!

Awesome that you got back into it. I would love to get back into one myself (Hoping within a few years)Just curious, what drew you to that White/White? I previously owned a Black/Black 93 and don't think I would get another Black one. (If I had the choice)

Re: '93 Ty #1720

Honestly I wasn't really worried about the color when I was choosing one. I think all of the color combos look good. I really would have liked to have gotten the teal/argent but oh well....one can only dream. My green one was '93 1879. The green one was my daily driver so I couldn't really wait for it to get fixed up and ready to drive. I'm not sure if the insurance money I would have had left after buying it back would have been sufficient to fix the truck.

Here's how she sits now. I installed the belltech lowering kit for it. Besides some small maintenance items, I haven't done too much to it since I've bought it I did have to remove the janky alky setup one of the previous owners installed because it was making the collar from the IC to throttle body slip off.

Does anyone know any of the previous owners for truck? The guy I got it from got it in a trade and was less than knowledgeable about the truck.
