Sold my WE4
« on: November 06 2011, 11:56:09 AM »
Well,

After all the work I done to my 87 WE4, I sold it. Missing it already!

Bought me a 78 Chevy Big 10 factory 454 with only 52K.

I've always liked that body style...shame you sold the WE4 though.  Do you still have any TRs in the stable?

Nope, but I hope to get a white 87T someday!

I took my WE4 to the body shop to get a quote on paint,..... W O W $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ ! ! ! Decided it was time to let someone else finish it. I had rebuilt almost all the drive train.

The 78' Big 10 is a twin to the 77' I had in high school. I had to have it. It's loaded with every option, including the factory tach!

Selling a TR could never be fun tho.  You must have really wanted that truck.  I need paint to my TR as well, and I'm sure it's gonna be expensive seeing that it's two tone, and I have some rust. But to sell?  Anywho, good look on find the white 87T you looking for.

Both of mine are 2 tone and I will do most of the work myself. The paint alone looks like it's gonna cost about 2K per car for some good paint. I think the 83 is gonna get a cheapy job but the GN will get the best I can afford. I understand how you feel about letting it go though. You could've just gone with a scratch and shoot but then you'd have to go back in a few years and do it again.

Good luck with the truck.

Well, sold my 78' Chevy Big10 454. More than doubled my $$$$$$$ ! ! !  :icon_super:

It's now on its way around the world. A collector from Saudi Arabia area bought it. Said he has a huge collection of American cars. His favorites are 60-70's Mopars! 

Sad to see it go, but $$$$$$$ makes me HAPPY ! ! ! :D

So, do you have sights set on another Turbo Regal?
