Thinking about selling my truck........ - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

198plus · 04-20-2013, 12:04 AM

I'm thinking about selling my truck, so busy at my shop I never have time to work on it.

Think I'll just buy me something that is finished and I can drive.

Its one of those things.. If you are doing this for a living, its hard to find time for your own project. Your build is coming along nicely!! Hire a couple of more guys for your shop to work on customer cars, and you finish yours.

BYW, I love the color of your truck, you have to finish it.

WOW, Really?? How much??

I think it would be a decent deal @ 20,000...........Your thoughts Alan.

Alan's Classic · 04-20-2013, 09:55 PM

I think you shouldn't have a problem with that..............But, the money you spend on another truck and fixing the bugs, you can just finish yours. Just my thinking. At least you know what you have now. Your almost there, don't give up.

I'm guilty of pushing Ronnie over the edge:-(
He is in the stage of making my 60 Apache look as good as his 65.
I can't believe that he is trying to get rid of it. all ghe hard work and money that he put into this he put into this truck.

Sadly, it crossed my mind that you might eventually say this. I agree that you shouldn't give up now after all the hard work & detail. Like Alan mentioned, by the time you buy another & tweak to your liking, you could finish yours. Also as mentioned, you know exactly what you have, & it's top notch IMO. If you can live with something not quite as nice just to hop in & go, I could see doing that. But my vote is to stick to your guns till this one is finished!

I know exacly how it feels and I fix cars for a living....my opinion dont sell!! I spent almost 8 years on my project and let me tell you something. Now that it is finished and I am driving it, I can't count how many thumbs up I see daily when I'm out and about on the truck and thats a great satisfaction I feel from working on her for 8 long years....

198plus · 04-23-2013, 10:55 PM

I decided I'm selling it.

Good deal for someone.

SFTorange · 04-23-2013, 11:29 PM

After following your build thread for the last few years, it's pretty clear that someone's going to get a heck of a deal.

likaroc13 · 04-23-2013, 11:34 PM

Dang, that makes me sad. But I wish you the best of luck!
