trainman0978 Posted May 3, 2008 Report Posted May 3, 2008 Don't take this wrong... But I still don't understand why you are gonna do this in this truck and not in the ford. I would be trying to sell the chevy off, and either put that money into the newer model truck, or paying down the ford. I would also see if you need to buy heads for that motor ( you mentioned they might have cracked ) and consider the amount of money you are going to be spending on this truck just to get it back on the road, cause no matter what you are at least into the motor for a rebuild kit and decking the heads, possibly a valve job, and cylinder honing. I am thinking you got about 2k to spend at the minimum just under the hood. never mind the money on audio gear, roll pan, wheels, paint job , and all the other stuff you got planned, all while making payments on another truck ( with rolled in payments on the chevy ) and shipping off to school for the national guard, and working at the restaurant, keeping your girlfriend happy and spending time with her, doing installs here and there for your audio business on the side, and having some time to relax, hang out with your buddies and a weekend a month at guard duty when you get done with your training... Please understand I am not trying to dig into your personal finances, and your personal business, and I am by no means "hating" on ya. Just trying to understand the rational of having so many things on your plate at one time, and the potential for alot of unexpected costs in the chevrolet just to repair the engine and getting back running... Lotta eggs in a lotta baskets.... Other than my old age financial and time management ranting - I think the wall is off to a solid start. Shouldn't you pull the rear portion of the carpet out first though? I see you have some of your supports still on the floor matts. And did you drill any bolts into the floor to help lock it into place yet? 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser Voo Doo Blue my upgrades and "build" thread.
