Thanks a lot man. Yeah I am talking to my stepmom about this. She at first said hell no that I don't need to do that but now she is understanding that I wan't to do this and it's right for me. She agrees with me instead of my dad because my dad says that I should get something fixed up already and she said no that I wan't to do it myself and plus money wise. So if I do get this then I am going to look into the S 10 thing for sure and I will do ALL the work myself no matter what it takes. My parents thought that I wanted to buy this truck and then put another 15000 into it but I told them that I can get 1992 S 10's for 2500 and less (I looked on truck trader and they have a lot around here for that price) so a 80's one would be cheaper but maybe I should go with something newer. Also there are a lot of S10's around that have 350 swaps in them so I can use the engine if I find one. I wouldn't jump on one right away so while I would be waiting to find an S10 I can start doing body and frame work and get it all prepped (even though I should do the frame and then front end and rear and engine, etc) but oh well I have to do it different I guess. There is a lot of work needed to this truck and it might take me 2 years to get almost done but I think it would be well worth it. It is something I can afford and I will have to make some sacrafices with selling my bikes and all but oh well I can't have both I guess and plus when it's all done I will feel a whole lot better with it since I paid for it all myself instead of barrowing money from my parent's. Even if I barrow money from them I still feel like I am cheating myself because if I didn't do that then I wouldn't be able to get the truck and that's what happens to people sometimes.... it's hard to explain and I am kind of getting off the subject here but you guy's get it I am sure.
