yeah, he's my dad, he just preaches about how he spent his time being poor and doesn't want to be reminded of it. I can kinda see where he's coming from but I only have a couple of things floating around. Even if my Mustang wasn't in the garage they still couldn't use it because everything else at the house doesn't fit in there with the way it's set up.

I ain't gettin rid of the tires. I'm using them. He also hates my truck because the hood doesn't match and he says it makes us look like trailer trash. I'm not allowed to back it in the driveway so nobody can see the hood. I also have to power wash the driveway anytime I spill anything on it.

Nice :gigem: As far as the hood not matching, a few cans of $0.96 wal-mart spray paint will at least make the truck one color and will last for awhile before/if you decide to paint it a little fancier.

I think I'll stick with the rolled on flat black for a while. I don't mind it.

I asked about it but I'm pretty sure it was already gone, as I never got any response.

The cable that goes to the hood latch to the hood release inside snapped on my truck, not sure how it happened but I guess I get to go pillage and plunder pick n pull when I get a chance. Also think this thing is going to be named the red october.

Got a new starter, battery and terminals for it. Next I'm looking at either tons or a cage. I got book money from the army so if I spend as little as possible on school stuff/borrow whatever I can, then I should be able to get a front and rear axle that I can leave aside and collect parts for rebuilding them. So if anybody has a sterling 10.25 with the speed sensor hole in the top or a D60 for it, let me know.

just go to a damn junkyard and find the sterling, they are everywhere

They charge 200 for a 1 ton rear, not only could I get one for less somewhere else, but I probably wouldn't have to pull it either. Colman's got one for $100 but he won't answer PM's.

yeah one of the yards here has rear ends for $50

pick and pull won't charge you 200 if you came out of something old or way too plentiful
