Well the story goes that what a lot of people are going through now (jobs/Economy) well BOTH my Wife and I went through that back in 2005.
So now we've recovered and pulled ourselves out of that hole, while everyone else now is struggling with it.
I bought my 67 C-10 for $4K and put another $10K into it.
Had to turn around in February of 05 and sell it for $8500.00.
Fast Forward to Present Time, and I received some "compensation" and was able to pay off BOTH our Motorcycle Loans and BOTH our Vehicle Loans and BOTH our Credit Cards....ALL IN FULL!
Damn is that a good feeling.
So I bought the Wife a 2005 GMC Sierra 4X4 and I told her...."With this I am Feathering the nest. I must and will have another 67-72 C-10 Shortbed or Fleetside".
She said "No problem Babe".
So within about 8 weeks I'll be seeing another substantial settlement.
So for the immediate future I'm trying to Trade my 1996 Chevy Tahoe 4X4 for a 67-72 Chevy shortbed/Fleetside, so I can start getting back into the "Work In Progress" categories at the Local Car Shows.
I miss it and yearn/lust to have that special feeling again!
Aren't you glad you asked?
