Sold a 72 Buick Skylark a few years ago when I bought my 71 GSX tribute. Sat on the money until we traded in our Silverado on an SUV for the wife. Told her I needed a truck (doesn't every man?) to replace the Silverado, and the rest is history.

I didn't sale anything but I had to make some hard deals with my wife!

Hhahaha that's nothin new to most of us!:lol:

Let's see.

One year ago:

The canoe and $3000 for a completely redone 71 chassis and suspension.... ECE 4/6 drop, new power steering box 350/350, 2 cabs (68 and 71), one useable seat (going away),
new slotted/drilled disks, nice bed and complete '71 front clip.

The money came (around the corner) from the sale of pics #2 and 3. The wheels and tires came from the sale of pic no. 4. I couldn't have justified the project if I hadn't sold pic no. 5.


And if I'm not careful with dumping too much into it, , I could still lose the next two pics.

I sold my 71 FJ40 to fund my 72 Burb project. I'll have another one some day, but I wanted/needed the burb more than the FJ at the time.

Re: What did you sale to fund a 67-72 project!!!
 

I have learned it's easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission! Sweet FJ!!!

I sold my wifes 68 Malibu project to fund my 72 Chevy Fleetside rodstoration .If I could sell my 55 Bel Air I could build another mancave to park the 72 in when it comes home from the bodyshop.

Here comes the rollin pin!!!!!:lol:

Re: What did you sale to fund a 67-72 project!!!
 

I traded my 96 2 Door Chevy Tahoe STRAIGHT ACROSS,
For my 72 GMC Shortbed Fleetside, back in April 09.
My Tahoe BB'd for about $2900.00 and the 72 GMC was about $5000.00.
On top of that, the Tranny in my Tahoe wouldn't go into Reverse half the time, unless you sat there for 30 seconds or more.:lol:
But the Guy knew that, and we were BOTH happy with our new acusitions.:metal:

Actually after selling my 67 C-109 (back in 2005), I told my Wife I wanted another 67-72 Chevy/GMC Truck.
SHE was the one that suggested putting a "Trade For" ad on our Local Craigs List.
Worked like a Charm!

Re: What did you sale to fund a 67-72 project!!!
 

So far I have not had to sell anything to fund my truck restoration. I have however taken a part-time job which helps fund it.

Re: What did you sale to fund a 67-72 project!!!
 

It was my wifes idea to sell the 68 to start my truck so no rolling pin for me.
