it was the end of the day and I was just unwinding by checking out the local craigslist. It was a 77 f150 that last week was $1000 and now it was $650. I always get interesed when they get closer to scrap price but I need another project truck like I need a hole in my head. And then from behind me my wife yells out , you should get that to upgrade what youre driving now. I turn around and say are you serious? I can normally count on my better half to keep me grounded but she was serious. Now , my other truck is a piece of junk. paid $500 for it did some metal work on the frame and cab to make it road worthy but as soon as it wants any money from me I plan to part it out and scrap it. So come sunday we drive 1:45 to look at this truck. was kinda hoping it would be a bust and we would go to the casino instead but I just love rusty fords. Shes got a 302 with 68000 miles and I thought was pretty solid. I even drove it home . the only reason its on a trailor now is because I had to take it to the dmv to get the id checked (the red ford is borrowed along with the trailor from someone else)I used to think if I didnt have a truck and trailor I would not bring trucks home. theres always a way. All I have to do is rebuild a spring tower up front , all new exhaust , and a good tune up. I know its not a rat rod but thought you might enjoy the rust.
