Bob_Koch Posted October 12, 2008 Report Posted October 12, 2008 You saved a truck. Thank you for that. Sorry that you had to sell it, often times finances dictate certain things. You are always welcome to join us in any way you can. We do have many people who don't currently have trucks but still watch the forum and the website. Sounds like you got a fair amount for it. I'm glad for that. Quote
IanT_Qld Posted October 12, 2008 Report Posted October 12, 2008 If you have knowledge and even photos then you can still contribute, it can still be a hobby even without a truck. It is sad when finances dictate that things have to change:( , I am fortunate my mother has a big enough shed that I can leave mine in, thus if I have to change jobs move or things get tight, I can leave it parked up.

Willis Pingel Posted October 13, 2008 Report Posted October 13, 2008 I'm really sorry you had to sell your '52b3b, I had to sell my 58 Pontiac a few yeays back and every time I see one at a car show I cry. I had no garage space and didn't want to leave it outside, but life goes on. Keep in touch and throw your 2 sence worth in once in a while. Bill Quote
Merle Coggins Posted October 13, 2008 Report Posted October 13, 2008 Please keep in touch. I can understand how tough it would be to have to give up something you put so much into. I know it would kill me. However if it keeps a roof over your heads, and food on the table, than it was the right sacrifice. I'm confident that another job will come along, then when you're bake on your feet another project will show up. Keep the faith, Merle Quote
