How many actually get their truck going again?

[sean1969c10]

I decided this year, my 69 C10 has been held up by $$$ and life's strange circumstances for too long. So I kind of changed the direction of the project. I had a 267 I pulled out of another truck that ran pretty well. So I decided to clean it up and re-seal it and stab it in. I have a 383 all short blocked and a set of heads ready but I just don't have the cash to finish it the way I want it. I want to get the truck running and driving, then just do projects on it to finish it. I think I want to spend some time just enjoying the truck instead of just endlessly working on it. This is where my 76 K10 is, it's fun to drive and there are tons of things that could be done to make it better a little at a time. Its nice to know that others have trouble getting motivated and its nice to have this forum to help get the juices flowing again.

i have 95% completed mine...or so i thought. I have replaced everything execpt the frame and the body....but i'm not happy and hopefully soon will brake it down into pieces.....this truck is like one of my kids....my dad bought it in 71 for $500.00 and in november of 1999 he gave it to me...12 yrs later im still working on it.

started doing the brake conversion in 09 on my 68, and like a lot of us, money, time, and life in general has put a stop to my plans, but the desire is still there....looking foward to getting it on the road this summer!!!!!!
