Who wants a hard top?

Totally fixable. The frames are made in three sections. Assuming only the front section needs replacing. All comes down to the sell price as to whether or not it is worth it. Rigs like this on Copart usually go for too much money. I wouldn't rebuild this with the intent to sell for a profit. I would keep it until it died or make a trail rig out of it.

Let the bidding commence for the MIC top. The buy back cost would be worth it.

I’d take them seats and bet that MIC top would fetch a few pennies for some pony! Gets it?

the real joke here is its 2023 and people still think they're comedians with this line

Well people have been using this one for a couple decades now and somehow still think it's a good line...

What? Nobody is taking dibs on the rear fender flares?

Agreed, it shows the monster blobs of plastic take a beating, they will probably survive a nuclear blast as well.

An oldie but a goodie for sure. That's why they call them classics.

Some say, "classic," I say, "unfunny, unoriginal, well-beaten dead horse."

Well alright then.

Such a waste.

Does it even make sense to open that can of worms and try to fix it ?
I’m sure the frame is jacked and will need a complete front end. Salvage title etc on top of that - brutal

Cost to even get it close to original would cost more than the MSRP is my guess.

Some YouTuber will try it I bet

Is this what they mean by "it looks fast just sitting there"?

So in theory you could build your own Raptor. Just replace the front and rear sections on your frame and then add the suspension?

Hmm, is the Raptor frame different?
