The Salvage 7 is almost ready to drive away from the dirt lot to a new garage for final touch-up work. The windshield came off another project, and the molding and wiper guts were transferred. Headlights, mirrors, and windshield hinges came from a rusty bucket of Jeep parts a friend was throwing out, as were lots of little knobs, bolts, connectors, and screws. Eventually we'll swap springs to take care of the list to the left, but for now we'll just load all our gear on the right side. Total cost for this installment of the Cheap Truck Challenge is still cheap, at $503.79. That brings us down from the initial $1,500 to $964.21, which is plenty for the important stuff like tires or a winch, or...heck no, just more Corona! Either way, it has to run as is for the <a href=/cheaptruck/131_0507_tral/><b>Cheap Truck Challenge</b></a>, check it out and see what broke.
