[weasel29gm]

How many a day do you spend on your truck?I work 11pm-7am sleep 830 to 2,do errands to 4 try to work 4-7 on truck,7 till 10 eat ,rest watch TV then off to work. Then do it all over again!!!

I probably work about 2-3 hrs a day on the truck. Except on weekends, then I might either spend a whole day, or if the weather is really nice I won't even go near it. It's tough to decide between the truck or going water skiing/wakeboarding. Must suck to be me huh? hehe

Don't spend a lot of time on the truck, as the 66 Chevelle is in the garage with no front suspension in it right now. The Studebaker has the other stall. It takes a long time to disassemble the suspension, replace most, powdercoat what you can, and do a disc brake conversion and quick ratio power steering conversion at the same time. I'm getting close, though, and hope to get it out of the garage to start the under bed gas tank conversion on the truck sssssssooooooonnnnnnnn....like I'm runnin' outa things to do........

I spend about 8-12 hours on Saturdays. Sometimes 4 or 5 hours on Sundays. Then once in a blue moon I get an hour in during the week.

Runs well... working on body.
Plan to get painted weekend before memorial day weekend.
Planned to be done March 7 when I turned 16. Didn't happen. Chose to do better job and be behind schedule instead of 1/2 doing it and it looking like junk.

I'm working full time now, so during the week I work on my truck any where from 2 - 8 hours a day during the week, on the weekends usually anywhere from 6 - 15 a day. Depends on what i'm working on and if I have the parts I need. Like right now, cash is low and the need of parts is high, so I haven't been working on it much. But when I do get what I need i'll probably never sleep. I don't get out much now that i'm living at home for the summer, so I gotta spend my friday nights doing something.

Usually, i might spend an hour or 2 a week. Now, i have a job for the summer, and they gave me a "company car" to do it in. I get to take the car home at night (its a crappie little Ford Tempo), so i dont have to drive my truck. Latley, i have been spending about 2 hours a day on it. I still have to rewire the wires to the starter, put a new powersteering pump in it, a new turn signal switch, and sand down some bondo and pull out the dent beneath it.....
