Been a Stranger

Hello gents..
I've been a stranger and I apologize. Been fighting with myself of whether to keep or sell the '68. Last time I worked on the truck to get the engine running was hooking up the ignition. Progress has halted as I had to get another dd and finances are in a bind. I believe I'm gonna keep her..after all I have a bada** 300 to start I'm probably going to move it to another location to work on it on my oem time.

Trolling through the forums is great for motivation. Helped me stay positive, while I only spent four years doing my engine conversion Yeah it's a pain when things get put on hold for some extra funds availability. Am there doing that lol
Welcome back

It happens to all of us. When I get to a point where I need to take a break from throwing money at the truck, I try to switch gears and work on odds and ends that need to get done for free using the stuff I already have on hand. That way I'm always moving forward.
