I manage a cemetery 2 or 3 days a week. I have a hole dug, and on standby if anyone is interested. Notice the receiver plug?

Re: What do you guys do for extra income?
I restore GH trucks, but can't find anymore to do.... for the right price.
Yes, I am still around, and check in.
I was working on a truck (to buy) the guy said was a 69, he gave me the serial number off the frame, and on the title, and things didn't add up. I finally got the pictures, and found out it is a 66 with a 69 title. Price was right, but with as bad as Illinois is with titles, there is no way I can buy it. Use to be easy using Broadway title, but now the state is really cracking down on anything old with shady titles, so I need to stay away from it.
I could use a GH truck (under $8,000) if you know of one for sale.

If they legalize marijuana, I won't have any extra income. j/k
I'll pick up plumbing side jobs. I wouldn't even think about that male ho deal. There's got to be a reason why a women couldn't find a man in a pinch...

Well it seams the Army pre-plans for me. Everytime I need extra money the ship my @$$ over seas. But the money is better over here than back home. When I am home, I seam to allways lose out on money making schemes!

Sell harnesses, thinking about expanding that to other areas of the truck. Also sell spare parts; car, truck and bike, and an occasional repair now and then.

Re: What do you guys do for extra income?
I run a tow truck on an occasional weekend, mostly for fun but the money isn't bad either. And, as an added bonus, I get the chance (fuel paid) to see alot of back roads and places bumps could be hiding!

Re: What do you guys do for extra income?
I maintain a couple local small-business websites which gives me a few extra bucks.
The last time I was at the U-Pull-It here, I found three dentside Fords with tilt columns. I'd have paid $20 for each of them there and could've sold them online for 10 times that. As a matter of fact, I'm going to try that for a while starting next summer and see how it pans out. I'm thinking that I could easily make more in a week doing that than I could in a month at my day job...and have a lot more fun! 
Around here that would actually be a decent gig, since there are still a lot of these old Ford in the yards....though purchasing the parts would probably be a better idea.sacramento_ford wrote:...sometime i go to pik n pull steal parts and sell them to you guys for 5 times as muchh!! hahahhahahahha

Re: What do you guys do for extra income?
We've actually discussed it, and have agreed that I could temporarily go to a part-time status at my current job until I could do this for a while and verify that it's a viable alternative. That way I'd still have my job as a safety net in case it doesn't work out.bobsgarage wrote:That could be alot of fun, but what would your wife say to that..?
