Tim, I need to be sure everyone knows you are kidding about Mac. As you know, if any of my Power Wagon friends needed something I had to spare, I'd sell it right, do a trade, or even give it to them.
In fact, these parts were removed from a complete rolling chassis I gave to a youngster whose frame had been cracked and poorly welded. I figured I could afford to help him for free since I still had those parts to use or sell. If I hadn't given the frame away, those parts would not have been so easy to carry off.
Here's the frame I gave him. Look at its nice condition. Light surface rust with some factory paint still showing on the transfer case cross member. The gas tank mounting straps are still useable.
I guess that's why I feel pretty bad about this whole thing. I would really hate to think it was a Power Wagon guy. But, I did another look and discovered that a complete 3/4 ton WC windshield in usable condition is also missing. It is still possible that it could have gone to a "Rat Rod" but more and more it seems the thief made his selections from a Power Wagon catalog.
