Thanks guys. I'm defiantly telling him about the site. Funny thing is out of all the bidders. He is the only guy who asked no questions.

I'm glad if you are. I wouldn't be surprised if you pick up another project pretty quick, though. I have sold out and "quit" a bunch of times. (Not saying you are quitting, I just know I never went project-less for long, lol)

sduckworth13 · 07-27-2013, 12:49 AM

Shawn, nice work on the truck and nice sell.

Honestly man.. seeing them around the forum after the sale is not what I thought it would be. I'm not sure how much I'd push to get the new owner to post pics. Ex what if they raise it back up? Taken the buddies out?.. things you and I wouldn't understand but may be the new owners tastes. Its the right thing to do.. but still kinda difficult to see it around.

Thats a good point Chad. After talking with the guy he is "super stoked" to get the truck. I'm thinking he is just gonna drive the wheels off it, maybe paint it

shawno72 · 07-27-2013, 08:30 PM

EDIT

The truck will be going to Visalia, so only 3 hours away. You Fresno guys keep your eyes peeled

**68bowtie** · 08-01-2013, 11:47 PM

you may have said already, but are you buying another truck?

Sorry to see this, Shawno. Not 'cause I might have some parts attached to your truck. But because Irene (The Boss) and I kind'a attached to *you* at Rene's.... and after.
Hope that doesn't change. No matter what truck, cage, bike. Or none-of-the- above.

I got the picture on the economics of the deal...Here, speaking from the chair of a guy that has over eighteen large in a truck that's probably worth ten on the market.
Then, being dumb enough to scout out, and leave her with a good painter (paint jail until 9/26...a promise....

) that'll finish her off with body and paint
(Palladium Silver Metallic) for another $5,000.... so she can be worth twelve?

Not for sale. Then again, neither was yours a couple of months ago.

Aieeee!......The insanity of it all.
Best to you.
Keep the posts comin'.
