Unfortunately I need to try and sell Darcy. My family and I are about to move and we have had some set backs for the past month or so that has us behind financially. Its a sad day for me but life will go on.

I'd be sad to see her go but you've got the right attitude man. Good luck to you and your family!

I thought you'd decided to keep it. I thought the Nike store bought you some good will. Don't sell her you're going to really regret this.

Lol yeah it's more than the nike store now. With me having to pull Liam from daycare due to mistreatment and my main employee having a heart attack we've not had much money coming in. As much as I hate to and I know I'll regret it, it's most important for me to take care of my family. There will be other trucks. However there are something's pending, if they go through I may be albe to keep her.

I'm sorry to hear about your recent troubles. When my son was in daycare, I had to pull him out as well due to mistreatment. It's one of the worst feelings in the world.

I hate seeing Darcy for sale. I've been keeping an eye on the project ever since I made the trip out there to pickup the longhorn bed.

Good luck to you and may things turn in your favor quickly.

I too hate to see this but you have to do what's needed for your you and your family (which you are willing to). I will pray for you and believe that GOD's will will would be done in your life, whichever road that takes you down. May GOD bless you and your family. And you have the right attitude, when we stand before our makes these trucks (as much as i love them too) won't matter. Take care my friend.

Thanks guys. It stinks but life will go on. But just because I'm selling this project doesn't mean I'm done with these trucks. If infact I sell it I hope to be back in another project by the end of the year. I'm hoping anyways.

Rus hate to hear that, wished I could just buy it and hold on to it till you were able to retrieve and finish. Good luck buddy!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 
Yeah I've had some offers from other board members to strait up loan me the money so I wouldn't have to sell it.. But I just don't feel good about that. I appreciate the kindness you guys have shown me!

Rus I'm sorry to hear that you have to sell Darcy, I have been there before and know how hard of a decision it is. But your doing it for the right reasons, hopefully something will come together in your favor so you can keep her but I'm sure you will have another one soon enough.

Thanks Keith! I have some ideas for the next one if in-fact I have to let Darcy go.

Dang bud the truck looks great! I hate to hear that you might have to sell it. I hope and pray that thing work out to where you don't have to. Good luck my friend!

I have to admit, for a 45 yr old that has done trucks for over 25 yrs, (that have for the most part been stockers), I have been bitten by the PB bug..

It looks AWESOME!!
