The 6.0's are in pretty high demand. When they are up for sale they go quickly.

Sorry to hear about your grandfather.

HotRod73 · 04-09-2009, 12:38 PM

HotRod73 · 04-09-2009, 12:39 PM

project is on hold debating on if i want to sell it as a roller or if i want to continue fixing it up... the 454 deal fell through someone else got it before i could

jgh64pkup · 04-09-2009, 12:53 PM

hold on to it and find you a 6.0

JohnC · 04-09-2009, 01:05 PM

I would just think things through really well before making a decision. That way you don't look back and say "why did I do that?"

HotRod73 · 04-09-2009, 04:50 PM

Yeah i already made my money back off this truck so why sell it... plus i was worried about my hours at work but its all good now... im going to have body work done on it then ill do the motor/trans... im going to send it to a members house next week probably and have it painted inside and out as well as the engine bay...

HotRod73 · 04-09-2009, 05:46 PM

Haha... Well my truck is up on craigslist now... My buddy found a 86 short wide with recent paint for $2k im going to check it out this weekend..

jgh64pkup · 04-09-2009, 06:08 PM

bring some pics

HotRod73 · 04-10-2009, 06:32 PM

That truck was JUNK i looked at it and wondered how someone would try and sell a truck with "recent paint job" for 2k.. It ran like crapola and the truck had a rattle can paint job!!! I was thinking "is this dude serious!?" the whole time!! .... My project is still going... I'm having it painted and sticking with original plan on it...

jgh64pkup · 04-10-2009, 09:58 PM

JohnC · 04-11-2009, 07:42 AM
