Wow! That's a big pay day!

My wife and I are getting about $3,700 back and that's only because she started work in june and paid taxes as if she was going to make her full yearly pay. If she had made her full pay we would have only gotten a few hundred back.

That didn't even pop into my head... good call!

Considering the large amount all at once, I think that's what I would do. Get something super nice that needs NO work that can be driven while the other one is "down."

If *I* had that much all of a sudden, I'd come up with another 4 or 5K and start looking for an amature resto. base model first gen camaro/firebird :D

Ditto- I am going to go beat on Arnie's door and tell him to pay up out of his own pocket. I am also thinking about sending the mortgage company IOU's until the state coughs it up.

I'm with you Doug! I'm going to the Moultrie swap meet this weekend with a coupla-three hundred dollars, but that's it. The rest is going into the "What are we gonna do now?" fund!

I have a build thread somewhere on both truck. I have to dig them up later. i know I could go out and buy a truck half way done. but then I am right where I wouldnt want to be. I want to totally rebuild a truck myself. This is this first frame off truck for me. I want a almost perfect truck built by me. Everything new. This is a truck that will not be sold.
