Everyone needs to vent every once in a while. Definitely understandable. Just out of curiosity, if money's that tight, does it even make sense to restore your ram? Just thinking out loud.

Of course it does. I live less than paycheck to paycheck supporting my wife and 2 kids, but i have to have a project to work on to keep from going mental. Im sure he is the same way. Everyone has to have a hobby, and golf just gets too expensive lol.

I ve had myself perfectly budgeted...i usually get around $50 play money a week on the dodge...but this week i had to buy the $40 slave cylinder for my car then they screw me with a double payment.....im not broke...they just screwed my system i had going with my budgeting


And yes its a good thing to restore the dodge cuz if something really bad happens and i cant make car payment then they would take the car so i need my dodge done for a backup....and what if my clutch goes or timing belt snaps.gotta have the truck ready

Ok well i kinda hit some $$$ on a scratch ticket so i had some spare dough....well got some more primer...primed the floor inside the cab....and after about 40 hours total of sanding...the body is all primed....bondoed a hole in the pass. Rear fender..cant eeven tell there was a hole....just need my new door and some bedliner and the body is pretty much done...

Now it took 17 tries to upload this because it keeps redirecting me....so photos may be few and far between if it keeps doing it...

But heres the body ready for paint...
