Extreme budget build

[tanman6983]

Just wanted to share my project!

It's a 67-88 mutt. I started in 2007 and this what I have achieved,

I'm getting close to tags and insurance!
I got the truck around the same time my wife and I would find that our family would begin! I knew then that the truck would be difficult to budget and work on with a baby on
the way!
I've sold off all of my other hobby stuff to get the show on the road, pearl drum set, twice used snowboard gear,nitro Rc cars, home theater ect. Ect.
Bought the truck for $500, rented a tow dolly and drug it home! Pushed in the garage and my wife's first words seeing it were " what is that pos doing here?"

I started pulling the truck apart without any knowledge on how to. So I searched the Internet and found this site ! More info than any other sight by the way!

I'm a very proud poppa! (Truck is officially on the back burner!)

I get to work on the truck every so often an hour here a hour there!
Birthdays and Christmas are now parts opportunities.
In 2009 our son started developing a little differently!
2010 Autism is the official diagnoses! Our hearts sink, life will be different!
the truck is now off the back burner and in the fridge! It's even been posted on Craigslist several times!
I've taken a lot of aggression, tears and pain out on fenders and rust! It been therapeutic and I'm glad i haven't sold it!

My wife has even come around now that it is clean and our son loves it! So here it is as I have documented it
