Bank Roll! Where should I start... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Just got a home equity loan!!!
I have ~$6k or $7K to work with. I just got the brakes done, and have added shocks. The next has to be wheels and tires, and then I am gonna change out the rear diff. What should I do after that? The diff, and wheels, should be ~$1400. I need paint, but It's not an immediate need.

Well, I'm awaiting an approval myself. Credit all passed, now waiting for titlework..............WOOHOO, Momma says I can finally get my 4 car garage! That leaves the old 24 x 30 for my shop! Happy times are here, again. Course, she gets her pool, hottub and patio.

I'm with Justin on this. I think bags are the next step.
Just my opinion though.

.....you're getting sleepy......your eyes are too heavy to hold open.....empty your mind of everything....when I snap my fingers you'll wake up remembering nothing of what was said or done.....

Now imagine you're giving the money to me in the form of a postal money order......

...it's not working.

Very nice.

That reminds me...what color is your pickup? If you see a blue '70 GMC tooling around UA's campus these days, it's probably me...especially if I happen to be tooling at 80+mph and spitting some smoke out, lol. (700R4's maiden voyage...I'm not sure where but somewhere if I nail it past about 85-90, I'm getting something on a tailpipe just enough to gimme a nice cloud following me...haven't ruled out engine oil, either...)

We're stealin' someone's post here........my 1 Ton 71 Longhorn is an off-white. Still haven't got the 700R pulled from the Camaro yet; it's at a friend's salvage yard and he's on vacation........Can't wait to get it to the tranny shop, and in the truck! I'm not that far from campus. I'll keep my eyes open for Blue.......I doubt you'll be doing 80-90 MPH for long in Tucson.
Project 1970, hummmmmm, should call my daughter that.....she's 32 now. LOL
