My Girls

Post by ters » Fri 20 Jan 2012, 16:10

Hi everybody, I am the proud owner of a 1962 Chevy C10 pickup, and 1958 Ford Custom.
The '62 needs some work, totally original. It has been standing since 1987. I bought it from the
owner about a month ago, after pestering him for 12 years he finally gave in!!
The '58 is being swapped tommorrow for I dont know what yet!! Maybe '53 Dodge pickup.
The new owner has a couple of cars he is willing to swop me for.
I will keep you posted, and ask lots of questions...!
When it comes to the wife its easier to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission!

No deal! It is amazing how everyone thinks his collection is worth a million.
I did not swop my '58, lots of nice project cars, but my vehicle is 90% complete.
I can not swop for a 23% car, even if it is very sought after.Well, back to work to finish
the remaining 10%!

Welcome ters.
When you have put lots of hours, money, no family time etc. in a project or projects, you WILL regard your collection worth a million. Talk is cheap, go and do a proper resto then we talk again! :roll:

Daan, I think you misunderstood my post. I meant some people want to swop you
a piece of coal for a diamond, or something of that sort!

Please, it was not my intention to offend you or any other member with my remarks.
I am just a normal guy, that works hard for my money.(12 hours EVERY day!)
Therefore I hold all my possesions close to my heart.

Enjoy!

No, no ters. That was not my intention either. I just made a remark that when you work hard for something it is appreciated. No other intentions. But I understand what you mean. Lots of uninformed people do not realize how much goes into restoring a car and expect to pay peanuts for it.
Anyway, all to their own. Enjoy the forum and your babies. :mrgreen:

Cheers,
Daan
