welcome looks like u got urself a steal. I like the color.

 

Hey thanks alot on all the input so far guys! I am actually getting an estimate tomorrow and we will se ehow much i shall be paying ha. As for the repairs, its really alot of cosmetics New gril, Pop out the dents in the hood and quarter panel and repaint them, Repaint the bumper since there is only a tiny crack at were it looks to have been the collision. He said he can fix that also. But i do need a new bar that hold the bumper on i think. THere is also a pretty nasty dent on the back by the tailight that im gettin taken out also so that might increase the cost a little, but i cant stand that dent. Looks like someone took a baseball bat to it ha.

Also once i get all these cosmetics fixed i was looking into buying some new Headers? Any a couple of other things. Can anyone give me some info on that topic. (yes car noob, but learning)

 

Welcome to the neighborhood.

Good buy on your truck.

Since you have to fix some front end damage, why not buy a cowl hood? Im a huge fan of em myself but everybody has their own tastes. Just 2 options to look at if you're even interested. I bought 1 from this guy and i reccomend him. Decent guy, decent deal. Congrats on the good deal you got on the truck and good luck getting everything figured out you want to do to her!

I have thought about buying a new hood, but i need to see how muchiwilll be having to pay a month..along with how much getting the front end is fixed. Im getting my estimate today so we will see how much that is and i will go from there, but that is a good idea..esp if i need to get a new hood anyway.

 

Welcome!

 

1 thing to remember in all this: money may be important to us all BUT you have nothing but time to save up for what you want and do it right the first time. I cant remember who said it but it was on this forum : Spend alot of money, cry once- be cheap and spend little, cry many times.
I know i screwed that up, but im sure you get the point.

 

haha no i gotcha....yea i am looking to do this thing clean and right. So i am open to alot of ideas, im taking out a loan for 10k to pay for it, thats around 2k for the repairs, and what ever i have left i guess i can use to buy something for the truck. That is if i have any left.

 

So i just got back from getting my estimate done.....2800 for all that I need a New Grill, New radiator, New bar that holds the bumper on, New brackets, Fix the Hood, Quarter Panel, and the nasty dent in the back, Plus repaint everything....How does that sound for prices? He told me that He doesnt no about the grill because he called dodge up and such and a replacement grill is around 600 bux?!? We were all extremely shocked by that price, so he is going to try and find a used one or work something out because thats rediculous. He also said he might not use all the parts like the brackets and such because they might not need to be replaced. So it could be less than that.

 

it sounds to me like you should shop around or bring that bitch over here and ill fixer up....where do u live at?
