Re: gotta quetion???
i say do it. you're probably only going to have one shot at getting it back. plus how cool would it be to pass it down to the next generation? or teach a son, daughter, or grandchild to drive in that truck? i would definitely do it.

Re: gotta quetion???
If you were closer, I would buy your current ride.
I say buy it back. If it means that much to you, go for it.

Re: gotta question???
I'm ok with the Mopar avtar. My 69 cuda should have been my project instead of the stepside build. I've had it for 27 years. Don't know about others opinions (Everyone has one)
