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!!!

No kidding! I'm going to sell my 84' F250, but it's to help pay for the Tacoma I just bought. It was a choice between the Ford and the Chevy...I like them both and the Ford is a better work truck because of the 8' bed, but the C10 will do good too. Might just get a rack for lumber, etc. |

Re: What did you sale to fund a 67-72 project!!!
I am lucky that I didn't have to sell anything to fund it. I have done alot of side jobs to help fund it though, and I spent some of that on the next truck project when I bought my old 68 SWB back.

Re: What did you sale to fund a 67-72 project!!!
I took out a loan in high school, and now that I am getting back to it 5 years later I have cannibalized a lot of the "crap" I did to it then. Sold the blingy wheels, TH350, Roll pan, Paintable front bumper etc.
I also have had good luck buying and flipping parts, I bought a parts truck just for the bed, kept the bed and a lots of other misc. parts and still made all my money back out of it. My wife is very understanding, thank goodness! Soon I'll have to replace all those parts I sold off.
