    on a side note, i found out it shouldnt need any body work to pass inspection, it will need brakes all around and front calipers. the two mechanical issues, hes suppose to be fixing before i get it is the tranny seal went and it wont hold tranny fluid anymore and the valve cover gaskets. it last ran out of inspection in 11 of 10. so whatdayall think?

    Update!

    well, unfortunatley there were a few unknown issues with the truck that led me away. so im gonna start putting alot of money away to buy a decent car by next year, but in the mean time im going to be buying a toy and a trailer for it! thats gonna be either a quad or a gas powered golf cart. i cant stand not having something without 4 (or 3!) wheels and a motor anymore (besides my racecar). heres some of the things im currently looking at, listed in order of how much i want it!

    1. YAMAHA SUN CLASSIC GOLF CART!

    not sure yet how much they want though, calling about it tomorro.

    actually wasnt the rust on the outside of the body that drew me away it was the rust on the hidden parts of the body that did. it would have needed new bedsides, a new tailgate, new fenders, new doors, and a new hood, only stuff that was good was the cab, frame, and motor. it just wasnt worth it for me. like i said, im gonna buy a tool and a trailer and sit on some money for about a year and then start looking again.
