stuck in a rough spot

ok im kind of in a tuff spot here not sure what path to take.

ive been lookin for another square to buy shortbed ive got one thats down. right now and needs some work but i really dont have the place to do so. at this point and time i mena laying in grassburs isnt fun heh. i had bought an 84 short bed back in march but it didnt suit me. and was a big problem so it got a good home to a dad an son. im glad i could do something for a dad an son to work on something together.

anyway i know people cant make my decisions for me. but maybe give good pointers and tips.

so im havin hell finding another swb to buy i find alot of longbeds but ehh im not into them. i would like to own another one along with the one i got. the one i have now needs some work to get running an driveable. id like to find one i can buy thats running driveable an to mess with some. then do a frme off restro on my 1982 which was my first ride.

but now im thinking im having issues finding anything just going ahead an maybe. and start working on the 82 swb putting hte motor back in it and new windshiled an stuff. needs tires and powersteering pump windshiled interior work etc.. and im not even sure my 400sb is going to last heh just dont have faith in it for some reason.

ive had people txt me an cal me with longbeds or shotbeds that are just junk and even a junky 85 stepside. i missed out on a 78 step side which kinda upset me but oh well.

not having the place to work on the 82 is a kicker. i dont know many people with shops n stuff.

so should i continue looking or start ordering parts or??

ive got 1500 cash to my name right now eaither way i got a good start.
towards buying a decent truck or getting parts for the 82

i think if i did the 82 i would be much more proud of the truck cause i did the work.

but i dunno what are some suggestions if any
