Smelled something as traveling down the road at 55 MPH. Stop the vehicle along side the road. Checked the trailer. Came back to the truck and smoke was rolling out of the dash vents, right rear passenger side of the hood was burning the paint, then flames came out from uner the hood.
Exhaust manifold is separating from the heads (both sides); cab corners and rear outside fenders rusted through necessitating replacement; back of muffler blew out requiring replacement.
