He is an older guy and can't do the work any more. He had a heart attack and is in the hospital so I went by and stole his truck.

The back bumper was rusted through

My parts truck provided a non rusted one.

He had used a Zip tie in place of a broken exhaust hanger.

He ia great guy. I hope this lifts his spirits a bit and helps him get home sooner.

God bless you buddy. Even if someone doesn't ask, or even think they need help, it's always nice to lend a hand to someone who can use it. Everyone forgets that one day, that could be you or me who could use a helping hand. I know this will definitely lift his spirits, I know it did mine, just knowing there's still good people out there. :angels2:
