To me its all about priorities. Mines running now, but needs a lot of body work and a new power plant. I have some health problems, so Im trying to get it done to enjoy a little time with it while Im here. But I look at it as an heirloom cuz it was my dads truck, and I have no kids, so after me its my nephews truck. I don't want to leave the poor kid a project that he knows nothing about, so I put the rat race on hold for it. Thats what puts me in the garage, and it will be bad a** before he gets it! (Dont worry, I already told his mom that he gets it AFTER college)
