Then off to paint booth by the second week in January at the latest.
This is a truck I have always wanted since I was in middle school and now 12 years later I bought one and since I make good cash I am doing it all right because this truck is not going anywhere except to cruise the streets and back into the garage.

After paint its getting the fuel system done (fuel cell, lines, electric pump)

knightowl73 · 12-15-2010, 03:32 AM

Lol well i gotta be cheap right now so all im BUYING is new wheel bearings for the front and a rear trans tailshaft bushing and seal, if im not broke like right now, a new trans filter n fluid change. Hopefully thatll last me till i rebuild another. BUT regardless of money im GIVING alot, mostly freebies from buddies or stolen from other projects. Inner fenders, front bumper, front tires new to match the rears, custom mixed from leftovers paint, rear sliding glass, a front sway bar, and possibly new mufflers and tailpipes if i can con my buddy outta those. And most of these my truck will get early too

. I try to be a good daddie

Yep my mistress needs to live somewhere close.

its an old house that isn't really livable picked it up for 2 grand. With some work it could be but I'm not a slumlord so I'm going to let it meet the ground.
