the deed is done

Well ladies and gents...I no longer have my 68 f100 anymore. Sold her yesterday. I intlitially wasn't going to sell...but situations took a turn for the worse and it was the only choice. I'm sad..but the gentleman I sold it too is 70 years old and sad he fell in love the first time he saw it. Hes owned 3 before and said this is his last restoration with his grandsons. I could see how much hell appreciate tbis truck and couldn't be happier. All is well in my spirits. Hotrodding and mechanics are in my blood and the hobby won't die within me cuz I don't have this truck. I have a classic chevy as my d.d. and it NEEDS the work haha ill still be around and thank yoh for all those who've helped me over the 2 years I've been apart of this forum family. I've met some awesome guys alojg the way!

Man thats a bummer I was following your other thread on to keep or not was glad you were gonna keep it but times get tough and things can change in a second hope to see you around with another bump to wrench on in the future. One question why get rid of the bump and not the Chevy?

Chevys my d.d.. the bump was my project and far from driveable. It was gonna take more money than I had to get it wjere it needed to be. In the time it was gonna take..the people holding ino it for me needed it moved. My arrajgements to move it to another location went south because my grandpa ddnt want telhe truckbon his land. So...as I don't have the room here in town...I had to sell. The chevys old enough to still be able to work on it..just not old enough for my tastes ill own another antique one day. Nows just not the time I suppose.
