If it was me I would probably let her drive something a little safer for a couple years while working on the truck.

Oh...I don't know if these trucks are a death trap. Not with a 3 point belt system installed that is...
With some power disc's up front and fresh stock suspension w/roll bars, these old trucks can handle pretty good too which allows a driver to avoid trouble!
Tank doen't need to be in the cab...agreed!
