Project: Hopeless

just keep saving your pennys because I'm going to take them all

Well that's good, cause pennies is all I have.

so you driving this thing yet?

I think I seen him drive by my place the other day.

So did it go back into hibernation?? Decieced I needed my own so I picked up a short bed single cab 2wd of my own..wanna race..

is that a race to see who's truck is fastest or a race to see who will have theirs done first

done first

You win.

lol..well that was easy. so what else have you done or is it mothballed yet again?

Yeah, it's just sitting right now. I've hit a bureaucratic roadblock.

Here's the Readers Digest version:

The truck originally came with a 6 cyl. Shortly before I took possesion, somebody swapped in a 350 (I didn't know this until after I bought it). So basically, seeing as how it's a '79, it won't pass California's emissions tests because, as far as the State is concerned, it's a 6 cyl.

So...

I need to find a '75 or older (smog exempt) $500 parts truck so I can swap the cabs (VIN #) and use the registration from the older truck to register Maylene.

I know. Shady at best, but what are you gonna do...

So there she sits, in my garage, till a suitable parts truck comes along.
