You won't believe what I found! Ford POWERSTROKE 7.3

What happens here

Moving to the rear, the presenter shows a heavy-duty bumper with non-functioning reverse lights. He then points out the damage on the rear quarter panel, attributing it to a gooseneck trailer jack-knifing. He debates whether to repair the dent or replace the entire bed. He then crawls under the truck to inspect the underbody, noting minimal surface rust on the frame, no oil leaks (which he calls rare for this vintage), and a new exhaust system. He asks for viewer opinions on whether to leave the modified exhaust or change it.

Goal: The rear heavy-duty bumper is noted to have non-functioning reverse lights, and the truck's underbody shows minor surface rust but is otherwise clean.

side of the pickup truck my plan is to come in here and we're going to take the paint off we're going to pop this Dent back out you can see it's really dented in pretty bad and or we'll find a replacement part Pop this out and weld in a new replacement part it may be cheaper to buy an entire new bed and have the whole truck repainted or it may be better what do you guys think to just sell this truck as a work truck to somebody should we fix it or not that's the question tailgate see how smooth she is yep nice nice and smooth this is when Vehicles were made out of metal guys real metal okay real forward metal all right so let's take a peek up underneath real quick show you guys what we got we got dual fuel tanks both fuel tanks work on this machine the guy I bought it from made sure he ran it just about completely out of diesel uh before he brought it to me with diesel prices the way they are but if you look up underneath this this is definitely a very clean truck what is this wire hanging down right here it led to the back I have no idea and there's something disconnected back here you can see the truck has been sitting a little bit no oil leaks whatsoever which is very rare for a truck of this vintage again underneath here this thing is as clean as it is on the top really really a very very nice truck guys very nice truck there's your fuel tank no rubber issues it looks like we have a brand new exhaust system and it's a big old exhaust system I'm not a fan of having these trucks modified but I doubt I'll spend the money to fix it so if we look at our cab you know rust is inherent in the cab corners right here there's no issues whatsoever with rust or anything of the sort in this area or here this is a very very Solid Truck guys I want you to give me a guess of what you think a paid for this truck and what you think it's actually worth okay so let's get back up take a good walk
