well she's gone
I don't know if it was a good move but I sold her.For some reason my heart wasn't in it anymore.I guess to console my self I just bought a Mustang GT convertible.(my first ford)It's nice to just drive it and not worry about anything.

 I'm glad it sold pretty quick for you though. Like Heath, your truck was the inspiration for my '69 K10 right down to lift height and even the color combo. You wouldn't happen to have any other pictures of it do you? I have one picture from your for sale ad that I saved as my background pic on both my home and work computers. This truck addiction is some bad stuff.  Now go out and enjoy your new ride.

Re: well she's gone
Well I did something simeler, only I regretted doing it. I sold the "72" "Garden Truck" and traded the black crew cab "2002" GMC duramax for my "2008" Silverado crew cab duramax. Not that I don't like my new truck, but I just don't get the same feelings when I drive it, nor the thumbs up. My customers don't want to hear about my new truck either
however they use to enjoy learning about the "Garden Truck". My only consolation is I am building a couple more... WES

Re: well she's gone
I have owned both these trucks and the Mustangs. They are both fun, but it's better when you own them both at the same time. Start saving those pennies again and buy another truck when you can.
What business are you in? Are you a handyman?

Re: well she's gone
There is something to being able to just hop in your ride and go, and not have a little nagging thought in the back of your mind...Will I have any problems this time out?

Re: well she's gone
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
True about that. I always had to keep my tools in the truck since I never knew when I would need them. Have fun with the new ride

Re: well she's gone
I love that Mustang ,nice truck too . Its hard to beat a convertible to releive stress . When I have a bad day I take the chevelle convertible out for a spin ,so it will work with that mustang just fine.

Re: well she's gone
Hey NYC-10,
Nice truck, and nice Mustang! I have learned over the years and over all of the toys and projects I have owned that they come and go and there is always another toy. The only ones I see you should hold onto are the ones that were your dad's or gramps truck. Funny part for me is by the time I am done with the project, I lose interest in it and wan to to start on something else Have fun in that Stang!

Re: well she's gone
I have learned that no matter what one drives there is the possibilty of a break down. Nice tang but these old trucks just have something special about them. Maybe it was the fact that I grew up on the farm and trucks were part of the family. Good luck with you tang.

i was told for the longest to get a new truck and you won't have to worry about it WRONG! I didn't buy brand new but i bought a 97 1500 good clean truck several years ago, but the most i payed for a car, the most parts and money i have put into it to fix it was the "new" truck but i kept my old ones thank goodness and you can fix them on the side of the road alot of times

Re: well she's gone
Sweet Truck and sad to see it go.. I am not a ford man but I did have a lot of fun beating those stangs lol with my past cars: 02 Z28 camaro and 05 Pontiac gto.. Nice looking one though you just bought... I have came close to selling both of my 68s and glad that I did not get any real responses for them because I would rather have them wait to restore versus selling them. I will agree it is nice to be able to just get in and drive, however, there is always that chance even a new car or truck will break down and leave you stranded *been there 2x with the GTO I had*...
HTH, Charlie
