Here is my story - I bought a 70 C10 when I was 16. Worked my butt off to save money and pay for my first vehicle. Invested literally thousands into over the years. Fast forward 16 years, priorities have changed. I have not given the truck any attention in 2 years. It has been on the back burner, in a non-running state for awhile. The family and house has taken priority. Now with a flooded basement I need money for house repairs.
My question to you folks is this: Even though the truck does not have much value (sentimental value aside). Should I liquidate it - to get whatever money I can to fix the house? I don't want to take on any debt with my current financial situation.
Please advise!!
