Ouch! I recently sold my 96 s 10 blazer , The guy was going to pick it up today and pay me today . I was soooo sure that he was getting the $$$ that I went and bought 4 new tires for my 72 .
While the truck is on the rack and the tires mostly mounted .... i get this call on my cell. YOU guessed it He backed out

I couldnt believe it! I really didnt have the cash in the bank so i had to put them on the plastic monster!

I was gonna really get started on my truck with the money from the blazer. Oh well , story of my life ....setbacks

Bright side is I have 4 new wingfoot 245 60 15 skins on my truck and the cost me 240 bucks out the door!

MOM always said: don't count your chickens b-4they're hatched

sounds like a real good deal on rhe tires !!!!

zooza · 08-25-2004, 10:01 AM

yeah , mom told me that too. The dumba$$ says he still wants it so maybe he'll come thru!
It is a good price on the tires, a friend owns the shop so I guess i got a deal! I went from a 235 to a 245 cause I like the fenders to be filled out a little, also it lowers the r"s a little.

Who makes Wingfoot tires?

mocwon · 08-25-2004, 05:26 PM

I believe Goodyear does. That's their trademark anyway.

Heard tale that goodyear also has the bfgoodrich now...

Yeah, I have heard the old "I'll be here tomorrow with cash" before. I never take the FOR SALE sign off until I have cash in hand. Had my brother's 2002 Regency Silverado in my front yard for sale about a month ago. I had 3 people tell me they would be back to pay for it, never heard from any of them. The guy that bought it rounded up the funds the same day.

If anybody is inerested the price is 4200.00 o.b.o
Just in case someone is interested in a 4x4

i sold my truck like a year ago and after i sold guy took home then called a week later saying he couldnt do deal or wife was gonna get divorce. i already had half the money spent so had to give him my next two checks basically. if he wasnt such a good friend would have told him to get lost. glad i didnt sell now

on another deal i sold a 84 corvette to a guy and he paid me but the cars still in my garage waiting for him to pick up. that was 5 years ago when he paid me for it. someday maybe he will come get it.
