Re: 51 chevy 3100 5 window build

been there man, last truck killed me. I don't even see how i could fund anymore of my projects the way my life is now. its been nice working on a truck that isn't mine and I can make money doing it (current build). The ONE nice perk about having say a body that is ruff. You can make all your patches and weld them in. I had 150 hrs in my last cab, included some paint but mostly patch work. You can get a 4x10 18g sheet around my parts for 60 bucks, if you have the welder already then boom you are set. Same with moching up the body on your dime frame. you can make all your mounts dirt cheap. So there is always something that can be done that doesn't require a ton of loot. Just keep at it.
