Call me stupid - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My brother has a 69 swb step side. 3 on the tree 6 cyl. Needs very little work for this truck to be ready for paint. He replaced the cab corners and rockers, and the mounts and the wood in the bed. So lats week he told me he would take 1500.00 for it. Today I talked him out of selling the truck. He said if he had another 6 to rebuild and different gears for it...he wouldnt sell it. So I told him I have the gears and the 6 cyl sitting here. So this winter its going to be a project for me and him. We have never done this together before. I believe this will be fun.

It's never stupid to put family first, just don't do it with expectations of appreciation or gratitude. Do it because it's the right thing.

You never know you might learn something.

You're lucky enough to have a brother.Spend the time with him while you can.You never know when it'll be the last time you can.The truck work should be the secondary focus,family first.The better bond you can forge the richer your life will be..

Forrest Gump says stupid is as stupid does.

Stupid, huh?

brianthelion02 · 10-17-2007, 08:55 PM

Nice plan,get it all done then give him the $1500,not stupid at all!!!!!!!

**special-K** · 10-18-2007, 04:52 AM

I think your brother`s stupid for not selling the stupid truck because he thinks his stupid brother is going to put some stupid 6cyl and a stupid set of gears in it for him.I don`t know why,but I`m thinking I`d call this "Project Stupid".Names just come to me like that.

caminokid · 10-18-2007, 05:58 PM
