I also did some research on my VIN this weekend because I got my registration papers for my truck this weekend yay!!! get to spend $135 for 2 cars go me, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

So when I looked at my VIN and compared it to the lmctrucks.com book I have at home, my truck came with a Chevy 350 in it, but hey it doesn't bother me that much because I still have a running motor in my truck that gets the job done as long as I don't "abuse" it too hard, and plus it'll get something better than a 350 sooner or later. Thought i would let y'all know the insight I found out.

Well I got my Brother's Trucks magazine at work yesterday, so I've been browsing through it yesterday and today, and well there having some pretty awesome sales going on so this might be dangerous but maybe pick up a new grille, and some exterior lights for the truck to and start getting the front end put back together. Still got to purchase me a new front bumper the one that came with the truck just wasn't working for me.

Hey just read through you thread. Looks like you are making some progress. Keep it up. Oh by the way, you can bring back my jack, jack stands and creaper. I got that set too. My wife bought it for me.

Well I'm going to let y'all on a little insight about me I love fishing, and if y'all don't know I currently live on my own right now but going to go live back with my parents to save money so I can actually enjoy being young pay off bills, and maybe try to set up a future for myself.

Well I love the outdoors and love fishing so I've been looking at some boats. So tell me what you guys think of them.

sorry for the double post.

[rs74]

My vote would be for the second boat. The gray one. I lived right next to a lake for about 8 years and was only on it a handful of times. Since we built our new house and moved away from the lake we have started talking about getting a boat and maybe a camper. Weird. I like the fishing boats but I would have to go for one that I could fish out of and take the family out on and do some tubing or something. There is nothing like being the only one on the lake and just crusing along taking in the scenery.

On the other hand all the money would go a long way on your truck.

[77ChevySharkBite]

Yeah I'm the same way I want a multi-purpose boat one I can fish on and still hook a tube up to it and have fun. Well reason I want a boat is cause I love the water for my job I only have half days on Friday, and a lot of time I just go home and do nothing so I rather have a boat give me an excuse to have a productive Friday, whether it would be to take some friends out and have fun or just go cruise wouldn't matter I love the water.

Yeah thats true too but it would be cool to have my project pulling my boat also I wouldn't be the only one to use it. Me and my parents used to have a boat when I was little and always thought it'd be awesome to get another one so that we could enjoy it as a family plus I would tell my parents to use it.

My vote goes in for the second as well

[77ChevySharkBite]

Yep!!! I went fishing today took the day off from work didn't get nothing but a buddy got a speckled trout got a lot of bites though. I still had a blast though can't wait to go again! But next time I go, I'm going to take SharkBite with me

Well this weekend was very unproductive!! Well aside from fishing haha I forgot how much the sun take out of you when your in it all day, but regardless I pretty much slept majority of Saturday up until 1pm and then just watched tv haha, yesterday didn't get work done on my truck but when and hungout with a friend and his dad while they worked on his dads 76 awesome to see how truly easy it is to work on these things, it actually felt good for a change to relax and watch knowing I didn't have to do much to the beast this weekend. Hopefully this week sometime I'll get the other 4 bolts off, and maybe just maybe if I can get my friends together bed might come off the truck!

[rollin thunder]

I should have went fishing this weekend. did you catch anything?

[77ChevySharkBite]

I went with a board member who's a personal friend of mine as well, but I got a crap load of bites and nibbles, but no catches for me. But my buddy caught a speckled trout but threw it back but should of kept it, it was a keeper.

To bad you don't live waaaaay closer I'm going fishing again for Good Friday with my dad, hopefully might have insurance so might use the truck but we'll see

ha I hardly catch anything myself. and for sure I would definitely go fishing and i just might steal your idea and take my father fishing for good friday. we where actually discussing something to do besides lay around the house.

[77ChevySharkBite]

Haha hell yeah man!! If I don't catch nothing it's no biggie, I enjoy fishing and it's relaxing, but of course if you get a nice keeper it just sweetens the fishing trip haha but it's all about having fun man, and getting some quality father son time in

If you don't want to get the truck painted any just take some hangers and unwind them and them, hang them and then paint! It's what I did

Well did a little work on the truck today, I had to fix my dads amp in his truck, then had to do some stuff to the garage, and well I had been meaning to put another wheel stud on the truck, so tonight I did that when I pulled the truck in face first. So this coming up weekend with fingers crossed should get the bed off
