you can kind of tell how bad the frame is bent from this pic, notice how the rear wheel lines up compared to the front, its actually about 4 inches off, hard to tell from the pics, the bed floor was not bent either, and it is still bolted solid to the frame, so the bed as a whole didnt bend, thats actually how bad the frame got it, the cab, bottom of the door, and bedside are all the way against the frame, it snapped the rear axle, my rear wheel ended up about 6 houses down. I rolled out of the clutch, and next thing i knew i was backwards accross the street sitting on the sidewalk and my head hurt like hell. i looked but didnt see the van coming

Ouch.... seat belts suck but they are worth wearing. Kinda like helmets on trikes ! gotta do it.

Glad to see you are ALIVE... never mind the truck.. that can be fixed.

Live and learn.. glad you are ok !

no inspection in IN.....thats what i was originally going to do, but once we got it home it was worse than we thought, it snapped the rear axle, and the door, cab, and bedside were all smashed right up against the frame, it really was a nice little truck, but a '95 s-10 just isnt worth that much work to me, im just going to part it and try to recoop some of what i owe on it.

I have an S-15 flatbed that I use to haul around the toys, there perfect for that. To bad about your truck but I guess it could have been alot worse.
