Red face 2 to many trucks

title says it all 2 to many. I have a 51 and 52 the 52 is being frame up done and the 51 is turning out to be a donater. It is just a little hard pulling parts off the one to finish the other especially when they are both in good starter shape. Oh well guess thats what you have to do these days with the price of rust going up and the market getting tight. Just means the 51 with the flatty might have to be a custom after the 52 gets done and just make one with whats left, It will go faster... just a winter thaught.

"2 to many trucks"

There is no such thing, I believe you cannot have too many trucks. My wife, on the other hand, strongly disagrees with me

My winter thoughts: sell all the stuff I don't really need. Then buy more stuff I don't really need.

Never too many trucks, just to little space and time.

Ok let me correct myself IT IS SO DAMN HARD NOT TO START ON THE OTHER..... I have the one that is coming along slow right now because of weather mainly, and the other is sitting there talking to me when ever I go outside "Help me Love me Fix me and I will be good to you.." Maybe I am getting cabin fever, or am I hitting another stage of the old truck sickness???
