as you can tell, I have been working till dark.... when this is done, I can sell the Dodge, then....waaalaaaa.... instant money for the slick...

You know, If I had a BIG yard and pockets full of money I would have a yard full of old trucks... :lol: :lol: I love these old econo's but I don't know about 8 grand worth... I have always thought of these trucks like a vw beetle...... not matter how much I put into one, I still have a truck that isn't a big collectable.... I just think they are cool and inexpensive to own.... I like the visor on the orange one.... I think the paint looks good also.... The red one looks real clean and I really like the bumpers but it needs another color to break it up..... just my observations.... what a ride!!!!
