just that kinda luck.

Post by no_luck on Fri Feb 05, 2010 8:40 pm

soo, a couple of months ago i was looking at getting a 86 nissan pickup to bag n body drop n chop all up real cheap but reliable. well today i was just workin real hard cleaning cars at nissan, ha, well i look at the bay next to me, a guy gettin ready 2 lift a 92 nissan pickup, to do a oil change, and as hes goin up, the cab n front end make it up but the rear end stays down, the bed angles up, as the fram cracked from rust n so on. well they dropped it down n leveled it out, but the frame is still cracked and the old guys wasnt all that agravated, kinda bumbed but "nothing a case of beer wont fix" as he said, so the day goes buy, he shows up later in his other truck and starts taking everything out, i asked him if they were gana junk it thinking nissan had paid sum for it, well they didnt, and i asked my boss if they were gana junk it, and he asked me if i wanted it, so i said for the right price, well the old guy was ready to get rid of it, and i asked him how much he wanted, he said 50 bucks, i said sold, he was supprised, and now i have a new project, clean title n all for 50 bucks, plans are full frame, body drop, bag, chop off the root, chop the front windshield, lay out on some caddy wheels, cheap paint, glassed or steel dash, rino lined interior, weather proof bench, custom shifter, full cali combo rear end, shave doors and everything else, and drive the hell outa it in a year or so....even in the rain. no luck huh???

i dunno yet i kinda like the royal oaks demo dragger, thats the nissan dealership i work at and i think that would be funny as hell,
i will prob figure it out as the project grows.
but its gana be a slow project. itd be diff if i had my own garage n welder. but i did just order a full skin....

if i was still in school i could have most the fab done in couple of weeks...but i graduated my body class n never got a job in a body shop....
