can't win

Friday I was out on a service call and spotted a mid '70's ford behind a shed. Started talking to the farmer about it and found out it's a '75 f-150 xlt with a 460 auto. I like the '78-'79 grills much better but it's still a nice truck. Had a closer look at it and the body is not bad, has rust it the typical spots but the interior is excellent. It has 97,000 original miles and is two tone red and white in color. I asked him if he would consider selling the truck but it didn't sound like he wanted to part with it.

I have a couple 79's in my gallery, I'll have to sell something here pretty soon, I live in the city and don't have too much room to park everything. Yet I can't seem to control the urge to buy!!

Don't think I would be able to buy a truck right now anyway. Went to one of those electronic sales at the exibition here in Regina and came home with a new plasma t.v.
