After hurricane Ike buddy mine was selling his Power wagon that got flooded. He didn't have full coverage so he was pretty much screwed and he didn't have the tools or a place to work on it. So i bought cleaned it up and have been driving it for the last month or so. You can see the water line on the back of the seat. I reused the same leather just put it in the washing machine and let it air dry:)
Thought you might like to see the tear down and the rebuild pics . I will try to post pics in order of pick up in Galveston to finish.

Holy Cow! When you said tear down, you meant it. Nice truck.
 
Really wasn't all that bad if the body, dash and engine harness would have not taken so long to get here it would of only took about a week to do.
