Don't be surprised if the truck needs a lot more fixing than you think.(read;MONEY)If you're not even going to drive it on the road, wouldn't it have been better to wait until you got your license and saved up to buy something that would require a little less fixing? The truck was $300 for a reason. Just curious? Dave
When you were that age, would you have had something like you're saying here cross your mind?? And, what would you think if an old, unenlightened dude suggested it?
Tell the truth now....
I grew up with stale (already read) Hot Rod magazines and HAD to have a Muscle Car. My brother had already had plenty so I had to have mine. Wasn't affordable to get one that was driveable, so I ended up with two '69 Chevelles that were growing behind an old barn in trade for cutting the brush and rose that was growing them in and cleaning the place up. One had a decent body and motor, but the frame, trans, and interior were shot. The other one had enough good stuff to make a decent solid car from the two. I was 14 and my buddy was 15 (no DL) with "TONS" of mechanic experience. Dad let me have the cars mainly becuase they couldn't be driven. By the time I was old enough for a learners permit, Dad registered the car for my Bday, my buddy drove "Frankenstein" to the Driver Testing Station, I took my test and got my permit and drove home. Ugly as H$ll, but wouldn't trade that experience for anything in the world.
