My 63 Burb has 23hrs left and its likely going too.

So I put a deposit on the camper, that I cant pay for...haha
So the burb gotta go and she'll be happy, and I'll buy another one to play with...
Such is the circle of cars for me...
So that ones yours huh ?? Nice !!!

nice thing about these trucks..
usually if your luck runs right you can have one on the road for less than $1000, not a nice one.. but one nonetheless.

I don't understand driving a 300. Talk smack about it all the time. People like that could'nt handle having a old truck.

hehehe.. I see that now. I am trying to get the modivation to go work on the new truck. I pinched my finger really good Thursday and it still hurts and leaks a bit, so I think working on the truck would not be good. It was doing good, but then playing around with Luca I smacked him on the head and boy did that hurt. Like I took a step backwards after that.

Oh you mean you want me to have to deal with them again. This was the reason I dealt with them last time. http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?sec...cal&id=3599787 This was at his Moms Apt at the time. I wasn't living there. The news isn't always right. I was just happy he was ok.

If you are ever bored and want to help me on that 66, you can meet me up at Bethal. I am trying to figure out how I am going to lift that hood off by myself. Need to get that 6 out and make it pretty for the 8 that is going in.

Well, he wasn't learning (I thought, anyway) he was test driving it.

I'm sure the clutch and pressure plate is smoked by now !!!

John, glad you got the bucks you needed and that your rig was sold to somebody in the group, but it's still kind of a bummer.....

MORE GOOD NEWS !!!

We just scored our home...finally...after many searches, many dead-ends.

Escrow was just opened up yesterday, so we should be in it within 45 days or so.

We ended up in Hollister CA. Found a NICE 2200 sq ft Ranch style home sitting on a 1/2 acre with TONS of (old truck) yard space !!

Move in condition, 3 bed, two massive extra "play" rooms.....Big garage/shop area.

Before the economy went to s#it...this place was selling for $600...we got it for under $300...not too bad.

Can't wait to get out of this 1 bdroom 500 sqft roach motel....really tuff with two kids.

Took us way less than a year to sell out old place, and find a new one.

I'm excited !!!
