Gah! Renton! It's been years since I've driven through that city - Used to work in Kent and drive to Renton to go to my favorite tavern (The Detour) - As I recall, Renton is comprised almost entirely of one-way streets 
(or, at least, it seemed that way) I'll bet driving that monster through there was fun lol...

Tire and wheel combo is a 42" IROK with a 12" beadlock wheel, and some dumb hope.

Stay in school and learn a good trade that will keep you employed anywhere in the world. What you do with those skills will depend upon you and this will dictate your income.
I took this advice from my pops and he taught us (brother and I) how to weld, and work on cars as well as working with out hands. We can drywall hang doors, heak we can build a house. Welding provided us with the ability to earn money, and this developed into decent fabrication skills. My point is that we can weld or build some simple things and make a reasonable living, or further develop the skills and build some one off stuff that pays big bucks.
I have a couple of degrees and use them in a field where they provide me a decent income. Im happy and content with two homes and several toys. This means that the "gas money" is only a small part of having fun.
Minimum wage job means that you have to work longer and harder to accomodate some expensive habits.
Learn a trade and stay in school so you have a degree that proves and documents that you are good at, and the money will roll in.

Not the biggest (and far from the best) but here's what I have in front of the house at the moment

That was me. I posted that vid. It was a video of my buddy Rob. He is a wild man! IN the off season our local 4 Wheel parts stores put on a little car crush event. Local guys like us get to take out some agression.

I am sorry to quote such a large post, but does anybody know where to get the stainless steel vent window frames like this thing has on it? I have seen those a time or two before in other pictures, but never seen any in real life.

Ed, your dads truck is gorgeous ! Thats exactly the look I want for my truck. Id love to know more about that truck. What year is it? ( I think its older than 78 cause of the windshield trim) What motor, rear axle, lift and gears? I was going to stick with 40 inch tires but I just stumbled on an awesome deal on some 44's but I will have to find some 15 inch wheels for them that are 8 lug and fit.
