    smashed this, broke that, covered it up with tape and paint
    Only recently
    I lost so much in my non profit last year that my hopes of finishing the truck kinda went out the window

    i figured I had a better chance of profiting off the stock market than I was to find an angel investor to help me finish the project

    ;IGY6 Rescue Truck
    smashed this, broke that, covered it up with tape and paint
    The truck has a +4.5 Long travel kit on the front
    King 2.5x10 coilovers and bypasses and 2.5x2.5 bumps

    raceline monster beadlocks with BFG 40x13.50R17

    Camburg full floater axel for the rear with 35 spline 300m axels and 5.29 gears on a custom billet ford 10”

    blitzcreig 55” trailing arms for the rear with 2.5x16 coilover, 3.5x18 bypasses comes and 2.5x4 bump stops

    and a 50 gallon fuel safe cell to get us anywhere the emergency situation takes us.

    i even had a LQ9 6.0 Chevy motor for the motor swap until it was stolen from the shop I had purchased it from and they ended up going under
    So I lost about 6800 on a motor

    all it needs is the fabrication work to put all the puzzle pieces together but I’m about 35k away from that happening

    and when I made the move to Texas in February it basically blew my whole wallet haha


    So
    meme stocks and some other more intelligent stock investments will hopefully get me closer to rollin again

    I have a 67' SWB in my shop, I got screwed over years ago on that truck, haven't touch it since.

    I trade, I didn't purchase any of the new IPO of coin, but I wonder if I should.

    I’m skipping on coin and instead putting my money into XRP

    nothing ridiculous but enough to turn a profit if the news and speculation is correct

    So did you drag the truck down here with you or is it still back at the shop?

    If I had room for it I would have brought it here
    Currently living in a rental so not much space or ability to do any work on it myself

    It’s sitting at a fabrication shop I genuinely trust. But for now it’s just sitting

    A little something every chance we get.
    Morning Robert - you're first - at the track
    Morning Alex - hope you AND the beast can make it!

    Morning again Scott
    Morning Danny
    Morning Brandon
    Morning Mark
    Morning Chas
    Morning Kevin

    And Morning Chad @Caboose117 . That WAS a tough year!

    :pccoffee: Good Morning SA! Can we get rain? I watered last night because we need it, even if the lawn is greening up nicely. Meeting Scott on the road for some garage sale goodies, and debating what to do with myself otherwise.

    My in-laws are having refrigerated air installed today so we have a bunch of guys walking around on the roof and banging around.

    It’s a cool day today so it seems silly but we’ll enjoy it in a month or so.

    Cannot like.

    2020 was brutal on all of us. I know I made about 1/4 what I normally do. Which isn't much to off with. Last week I saw a pilot position open up off-shore and threw my name in the hat. Not going to hold my breath, I'm sure every other pilot did the same and it's only the one position available and the first one that's opened up since February of last year. With the current administration in a certain house in DC running things the way they have been I don't expect to find a better paying job for a while :rain:

    When I win the lottery I'll be happy to help you finish that truck and support it's mission. Just waiting for the dude at the corner store to stop selling me losers.
