interesting rear section on the truck, looks killer. does it ride well in the rear with shockwaves at that angle, looks like the oil would be in the wrong spot with them inverted like that. kinda kool that you can run them that way. keep it up, looks killer.

abadsvt · 09-01-2010, 12:03 PM

Hey guys! Sorry for not getting back or updating the thread. I have been working like crazy with my new business and haven't had a single second to work on the truck. Infact i am debating on selling the truck because i don't have any time anymore. Nothing new has happened on the truck which kills me to say. I fell like i have failed but i need to keep food on the table first then i can play.

Another note. I am going to be selling my wheels and tires off my truck. I need to buy a large format printer for my business. Everything is brand new never driven. $3k for the wheels and tires. Pm me for details or call me on my cell 805-610-5327

Thanks guys for all the kind words!!!!!!

Starting to seem like everybody that I'm subscribed to is selling their projects.. well the most awesome ones at least! I totally understand the business part and it will pay off I'm sure! I would love your wheels but I would first need to sell mine and still wouldn't have enough money right now...

Thanks but i am actually looking at a cannon printer. I know your thinking cannon but there new aqueous printer is amazing and pretty inexpensive. The cannon ipf8300 is supposed to be one of the best aqueous printers out there. I have a roland vp-540 solvent printer but i have had alot of people ask for canvas prints so i want to tap into that market. Nice printers though!

Sorry admin. I haven't been on here in a while and forgot that my susbription expired. Everything is all good now.

So i have decided to sell my project. Life has changed its direction and the wife and I have decided I should sell my project. This is an incredible opportunity for someone to get a killer deal. I have over $13500 in parts plus a custom made frame and only asking $12,500. Doesn't need a whole lot to finish to build but some time that i don't have. Here is a link to the for sale ad. If anyone is interested please let me know. Thanks for all your kind words on my build and i plan on building another down the road.

please pm for any questions.

Raguemoe · 09-13-2011, 02:26 PM

And I was just thinking about your truck the other day! I was hoping to see you finish the thing,but the last I saw it you had just moved to your new location & figured you had been busy. Anyways, family comes first (that's why I sold N2Deep) & you can always build another one. Good luck!!

Hi everyone! I wanted to post that i am moving out of our current shop in a couple weeks and don't want to move my truck and all the parts if possible so i am discounting the truck to the first person who acts on it. Price was $11,500 but i am willing to do $10,000 if someone is able to come and get it before we move. I have had alot of action on the truck so far so i am assuming it will probably go pretty fast. There is over 13k in parts alone not including the frame so this is a steal. Please call me at 805-610-5327 for any questions. Here is the link to my for sale ad.

**67cheby** · 02-01-2012, 03:54 PM

WOW....i cant believe you still have it after the 11,500 price !! what a STEAL !!

watahyahknow · 02-01-2012, 04:37 PM

darn i could use the engine trans and wheels but i dont have the cash
you should be able to sell the truck no problem its a great piece of machinery and you done some great fabrication on it

KRUSTY 51 · 02-02-2012, 01:15 AM

I just finished reading 21 pages of your build looking forward to see the end result....BUMMER ....I hope everything is well, and you build another one.

(Double D) · 02-02-2012, 05:35 AM

WOW!..... just read this straight thru. Get to this page and my heart just sunk. What a shame. Seeing someone put so much time, energy, and $$$ into a project just to put it up for sale and not finish it. Makes me second guess even starting one.

abadsvt · 02-02-2012, 12:56 PM

Thanks everyone. I know it is hard to admit that i am not going to be able to finish it. I did it wrong though. I was funding the project as i went instead of having all the money ready which slowed me down. Second thing i did wrong was buy a business and thinking i was still going to have time to build my ride with 2 businesses. That was my biggest mistake cause i don't have any time anymore. Hopefully someone on this board will buy the truck and finish it so we all can see how it looks when completed.

Josh

boonedogs72 · 02-02-2012, 03:38 PM

one hell of a deal for someone for sure.

abadsvt · 02-09-2012, 12:28 PM

Thanks boonedogs. It really is. I had someone call me and talk to me about the truck and they told me that they priced out all the parts and also what it would cost for a shop to build the frame, headers, exhaust, all the sheetmetal in the bed and he figured it was a little over 20k. His wife wouldn't let him buy the truck otherwise it would have been sold a while ago. I have had a few people call since i dropped the price but no one has acted on it yet. So i wanted to let people know that i still have it. Thanks

Josh

watahyahknow · 02-09-2012, 01:19 PM

everyone is kindah hurting for cash at the moment with the economy the way it is i guess
i think it would sell way eazier if it was driveable (not everyone can see the truck through the parts), it would apeal to a bigger audience , no need for paint just a groundcoat (that way they can choose the colour ) but it needs to be put together and driving
jou would win more cash than you need to invest in the truck to get it in driveable condition and who knows you might get more work / cash and decide to finish it for youreself

rhd_c10 · 02-15-2012, 12:09 AM

damn.. i just found this .. u never really start a build thinking of selling it so you spend extra time in it thinking your going to enjoy it one day... but things happen.. you have a beautiful truck... and i cant see anything you done that could have been improved on.. good luck wish you the best...

dgreen · 04-19-2012, 11:54 AM

were did u mesure from to back half it? i want to do this to my tuck i have a 87 r10 swb i juts dont know the steps to take to do so. thanks dgreen.

laid67 · 04-24-2012, 06:59 PM

aww, that sucks man, one of your renderings was the inspiration behind me buying my 67. i wish i had that kinda cash right now, i would buy this in an instant.

bcutt · 07-18-2012, 07:42 PM
