Truck Shuffle

Right so here is the lowdown. An opportunity has arisen where I might be able to get a toy that I have wanted for a long time. My friend Dave has a 1978 Ford Bronco that he is willing to let me have for $1200. The catch is that it needs alot of work because it's sat for the last 10 years. So I am currently trying to sell my Pick-up for at least $1200 I'm hoping around 2k. Then I can cancel insurance and parking for the truck. The Bronco will be taken from Dave's House to his shop where it will sit while I slowly rebuilt it to be street legal and functional. I'm guessing this will take me one or 2 months.

The new truck has a 460 engine Ford Big block. Due to the price of gas and the fact I really want to keep that powerful engine, Dave is going to help me convert it to Propane. I also have to replace all the bushings, and the brakes are totally seized and most likely garbage. But I get my Bronco which the 78 and 79's are basically Tanks with Ford emblems on them.
