Drastic Changes in my CRAZY Life

GrumpyOleTroll · 11-09-2008, 08:52 PM

Ok....I have been missing for the forums for the last week or so and its because my wife did something completely crazy....

She bought me a toy...I made a comment that since we were gonna have some extra money I coulf get a truck..completely joking about it...she said HELL NO...but a day later she had a list of trucks and said if I could find one I wanted for the right price I could get it...so I looked and looked and made calls and found what I wanted...300 more than I wanted/could spend. We went and looked and while I was inside getting her dinner she called the guy back and offer the max we could spend..and 24hrs later he called back and accepted it!!!! So I have to fix the brakes on her car, replace a tire and steam clean the interior and then tune up the truck and do its brakes...oh and all the While starting a NEW Job on the 17th..Working for the local city at the Water treatment plant!!! I now have a "REAL" job, a truck and a few great smokes..LIFE IS GOOD!!

On to the pics...

1988 Chevy Stepside with rebuilt 350, auto with PS, PB, buckets and 17" American Racing Torq Thrusts with almost new tires. The body is pretty good bed solid and everything works!

I am in LOVE..thinking I need a new Plate that says....."OTHRWMN"...LOL
