What would YOU do? (truck build)

[Tacoma]

So I will need to start finding other lucrative employment, right when I'm trying to get the M715 done. I would like to go 'wheeling all summer, but obviously the funds aren't there for the 715 right now. I have the drivetrain and most of the bits and pieces laying around, but it needs a bunch of cash thrown at it to really be a runner. I'm thinking I should build the Blazer in the meantime, since everything bolts in.... but! what to do about the 715.

Option 1: sell the Rockwells and the body, scrap the frame, and use that money for the Blazer. No more 715.

Option 2: use the 715's Doubler in the Blazer, and just keep working on it as time/money permits. 715 stays, keep the dream alive!

a Pirate response would likely be "fork, neck, curb." or eat a bowl of something.

1. This isn't Alabama
2. lots o' lift BAD
3. 6.72's, $1300 beadlocks, and $2800 worth of tires make streetability iffy.

You know that if you sell it you will kick yourself in the A$$ in the end. Keep it an build the Blazer as a runner. Just my 0.02

Your screwed, pour bleach on it and stick yourself with a fork and park the 715 at the curb.

Buy a dirt bike (from Greg) and cover ten times the ground in the same amount of time.

opt 2

Gotta keep it!! I would throw the rocks under neath and the double- then wheel the crap outta it then just swap it all into the 715 when its ready. Rocks are the Sh!t don't let them put you down

The Blazer is getting the Doubler for now, and the 715 will keep collecting pennies for all the other stuff (the expensive, heavy stuff) it needs.

I just cant' let it go.... but I'm not going to kill myself to pay for it right now either. Blazers are cheap.

 

[projektdotnet]

715's are awesome

I didn't vote because the option that it true is not listed...

Just leave both on the curb and they will be gone tomorrow, then find something else.
