I think I may need help

I just sold my 84 that Ive been tinkerin on for a couple years so I can finish the 69 that ive been tinkerin on for over a year. Now I get an 89 that needs a little tinkerin done to it. Tonight a guy I know called me & told me about a 79 short step with no motor that he wants to sell. HECK YA Im going to look at it! Ill let you guys know if I buy it.

I have a serious truck problem. Doctors cant help, money sure couldnt hurt...corn

Re: I think I may need help

I'm the same way. My future mother in law said I didn't need the blazer. I said yeah but I couldn't pass the deal up. Even if I don't get it up and running and part it out I've get the $$$ for it.

Re: I think I may need help

I have to admit I'm the same way. I already need to complete my crate motor installation, but seems all the time I'm looking to buy another truck. Maybe the next pickup will have some of the mods I'm looking to do or maybe just in better shape than the one I already have. I think it should be a forum or site dedicated to people with this addiction. Maybe there could be a twelve step program that could help us complete one project at a time. I fight this demon week to week. I could post all day on this subject so I'll stop.
