Re: Tom - 1991 GMC Sonoma GT

Well its been awhile since I have posted on this one. A few weeks ago, I made the decision to let this one go. After a lot of thought and a conversation with my wife, we decided to let it go just for the amount of money I had invested on the new parts that I had bought. Since it was given to me, it was more about helping someone out then trying to make some money off the truck. The next day, a friend posted on FB that they needed a cheap car to get thru a tough time and so he did not have to ride a motorcycle to work (30 miles one way) during the winter. So we told them about it. They came and looked while I was out of town and where interested in it.

I got up yesterday and finished putting it back together. They came by about 4:30 yesterday. He took it for a drive, liked it and handed me $500. I had not even really given them a price, my wife told them " around $500 " when they looked at it in the shop when it was still all apart.

So its gone, I feel like I helped someone out in need, and ended up making a few dollars more than I had invested in it.

Sorry now pictures, but I did paint the rear half of the frame and detail the shocks before I made the decision to let it go. I took out the lowering spindles to put the stock ones back in. Glad I did, I realized I made a mistake when I put it together the first time. Can any see what is wrong with this pic:


Did not take anymore pics of the rear or anything else after I did the battery tray shown above....
