New Year's Shopping List

Well, I've been humming and hawing for about a year now whether or not to sell the Crew Cab and buy a newer Crew Cab. Been able to find arguements to support a yey or a nay. but I think i'm pretty much decided to keep the Crew Cab I've got and continue rebuilding it. I think the biggest arguement for keeping it is the fact that the new truck payments of $500+ a month, every month, vice $500+ a month, every now and then to fix or replace something still leaves me with lots of months with no vehicle payments! So....let's start the list!!! Inulation, door seals, window seals, rugs, headliner, box sides. box floor, rear bumper, paint... lol But then again, a new V10......

I don't have the answer for you either, a 78 makes a nice crew cab but for work I have driven a V10, damn powerful and a good motor but 300km to a tank what's a tan? 140 litres I think.

They all have their good points, the old and the new and I like `em all. A 460 stroker with a blower in the 78 would be sweet.
