What makes you happier- $10K or the truck?

I got $10K for a bump once. Sometimes I miss it, but that cash went to good use.

I can not answer for you, but as for me I would take the money.

I'm thinking the same thing, because then I can start over. And I know what I'm doing this time around.

I would sell, but I am ready to move on to another classic. I have had a half dozen Ford trucks over the years and I must say that I wish I had not sold a couple of them. Hind site, 20/20

not saying what you should do, its your truck and your likely somewhat attached to it...but..

as far as the money, I think thats a darn good offer. real nice truck, but in my neck of the woods I wouldnt be able to ask that for it, much less expect to get it.

To me it would be about whether or not I wanted to keep it, not really about how much its worth since (imo) you have a good offer in front of you.

10k is not enough for my truck (unless it was offered to me in its present conidition, a billion pices haha)

But the sentimental value in mine is way more than actual value. Just my

Wow, that's a nice truck. Hell, for $10k to buy and 1k to ship to the east coast, I'd be tempted to buy it. The truck I have now I bought in Tempe and shipped to Philly.

Only you can answer whether or not it's worth it. Personally I'm looking forward to finishing my truck and having years of enjoying it and driving it.

I think I'm going to just keep it, because if I sell it and buy something else then its still a truck. Money sent and I might not be as happy and kick myself later. All the time I put into thing ta, I had to look back through my project thread to put it in prospective. Thanks for the insight guys!

[jp2005]

Here's what I was thinking about buying. Thoughts?

no front brakes
power steering
352, rebuilt trans
radio delete
clean interior

Good looking truck, if you need a place for storage, I got you covered!

That'a a very fair price is probably more than you'd ever get offered again. I'd sell and start on another truck. Why? Because that keeps life interesting.

By far more then I paid. This is so tough! Its crazy when you want to sell a vehicle you get no offers then when you don't you get tons.
