Re: Project Vitamin C-10
No progress on the truck for a week. It all boils down to being lazy.
What have I done now?? A guy traded me a 1986 4Runner and cash for my Turbo Miata. You know how it is when you get tired of of a car/truck. Get something else. I know it's not a Chevy, but a SBC might end up in it. Don't know what I will do. Just want to be able to take the kids off road. ![]()

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
It looks really straight.
BTW, I don't have a lot of money. If I did I wouldn't be in debt. But still my bills are very low. That was the plan to retire. That's why I'm still working. I like toys. ![]() At my age, I'm having fun. You can't take it with you.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
I knew you were messing with me. A lot of people think I have a lot of money because of the toys I have. I just spend it wisely, and not all at once. It took a long time to build up to this point. I worked my a$$ off all my life and USED TO MAKE GOOD MONEY. But now it's a third of what I used to make.
![]() There, I feel better now. ![]()

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
But I was prepared for it by lowering the bills, and getting SS & Snap-on retirement. Hang in there. It should get better. Your lucky compared to other body men. At least you know mechanical also. That opens up more doors.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Does it count as progress even if I just got some metal so I can fab up the fuel pocket in the bed? I want to work on it, but this damn yoda is still fighting me for 2 1/2 weeks. Any body got a match?

I think I would starve. ![]() I also had to prove that I was still around and hadn't abandoned the project. I cut out the inner fuel pocket and got it bent. I used some metal from a wrecked hood at work. Then ran it thru the sand blaster on the side you see. I've go to put some more sand in the cabinet, so I didn't do the underside yet. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
I'm sure they will sell you one. LOL It's good but not great. I couldn't shear the metal I made this piece out of. If I had it more secure to the table then I might be able to shear it. It weighs about 300# and don't want it to tip.
![]() Thanks for subscribing and thanks for the comments. I hope to get more done soon. I've got a couple fires I got to put out first. ![]()
