i have no idea what the 454 truck looked like or anything but either way i do love the way that truck sits

Rc 415 · 09-09-2007, 10:56 PM

I personally think you traded down... but hey if you like it...

PRUNEDA · 09-09-2007, 11:03 PM

Looks nice, I haven't seen the 454 you had before but all that matters is that you like your new one.

bigblock79 · 09-09-2007, 11:24 PM

Do you care if I ask your reasoning in the trade?

bigblock79 · 09-09-2007, 11:46 PM

to help a freind out of a jamb

cochino12 · 09-09-2007, 11:49 PM

nice truck

bigblock79 · 09-09-2007, 11:50 PM

thanks all

I think you came a head. I would much rather have this 4x4 which btw looks great, than your old unfinished project 2 wheel drive.
Plus if you miss working at a truck you can always upgrade (go bigger)axles, tires, suspension, driveshafts, etc. on this one.

**N2TRUX** · 09-10-2007, 10:15 AM

Hmm, lets see if I got this right. You traded a running driving truck with decent paint job and a good motor for a project truck? I'm thinking you did just fine....

72BlckButy · 09-10-2007, 01:36 PM

Looks great!

Pyrotechnic · 09-10-2007, 02:27 PM

My only fear would be goofy body repairs under that paint, but if you checked it over first then you should be fine.

jchav62 · 09-10-2007, 03:15 PM

Beautiful truck. Great trade!! Congrats...

baknblk · 09-10-2007, 07:03 PM

good looking truck..

streetstar · 09-10-2007, 09:13 PM

Truck looks real good --- just put a 454 in it later if you get another big block fix

bigblock79 · 09-10-2007, 09:37 PM

thanks ya for the kind words.
a buddy of my bought this truck and paid the person half of the money.
the person was to bring back the title and get the rest of the money but he ran off with the money.

and left my buddy hanging and a week or so later my buddy found out that he only borrow the truck from a buddy of his. and was just selling it for him.

so his buddy and my buddy was talking one day and relize that he was the one who bought the truck .

and now he was going to have to give the truck back or losse 2800.00 or pay the guy that really own the truck and have about 6500.00 in it.

so i was talking to my buddy one day and he told me the story. and he said he was going to loose the 2800.00

and just give the truck back or he offer me a trade and he said he would pay the man for the truck and have 6500.00 in my big block truck and by the time he finish it he could come out or break even.and i did not want my buddy to lose that kind of mony so i was a friend and traded i had about 5000.00 in my big block truck and i thank the 4x4 will bring that i might be wrong but i have done that before so thats why i traded a 454 truck for it thanks sorry long post

bigblock79 · 09-10-2007, 09:37 PM

and yes i got the title

boatpuller · 09-10-2007, 10:08 PM
