Cant Believe it
 

I tallied up all my receipts today and cant believe all the money I have spent on my V. This encludes everything from sand paper, to screws, tape, washers, paint rollers all the way up to rewiring, fuse box, batteries, paint, guages, tune up, wiring harness, prop, ect, ect.
I put close to 5 grand into the boat. When I look at the boat, I wonder where did all the money go. I dont see it. :( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

But I did have a first great season with her. ;D
Will make it a tax write of for Shipwreck research in the De. Bay. ;)

I kept all the receipts from back in '99 when I did mine...the day B4 I die, I'm gonna add 'em up ;) ...

I made the mistake of keeping track of how much I spent when I fixed up my 72 Chebby Pickem up (over 10K). *:o *

I will never make that mistake again.

Maybe this should be your next research:

72 Chevy shortbed, fleet side. *It's a Cheyenne. *It was my grandfathers truck, and my first vehicle.

I rebuilt the 350 for the second time, it has around 220K miles on it. *I also replaced the stock 3 speed column shift manual trans with a 700 R 4.

The trans was a big expense, and replacing all of the rusted metal was a huge expense.

But it looks good to me.

I still have work to do on the inside, but I have these boats to work on too.

BOAT ---- It means Break Out Another Thousand.

You got to pay to play. I am redoing a 46 ford coupe.
Have resorted to hiding the receipts from my wife. If she finds out what I have spent on this project would be sleeping with cat on the couch

Hammer, the before and after pics of your V show a big difference. I'd say it was worth it. 8)
