Don"t do it!

Don"t do it!

No worries, I'm not giving up all of my toys. Just need to raise some cash to buy the ring, then a down payment on a house, then the wedding... All very costly.

I made that mistake once...

(Sold my 70' SE/RT Challenger 440 Gomango for the House and wife to be)
She is LONG-GONE and the Challenger too!

If you want to put her to the test, because its gonna come up sometime, tell her you can't sell the stuff you may need later and that you will get her a ring on payments. Better to find out now than after a few years!........................MO

Do you have a picture of the 440 Forged Crank. If you do and is OK shape I will most likely take it...cr8crshr/Tuck

Putting all of this up for sale was my choice. The irreplaceable stuff like my first car, 68 Coronet in my avatar, and the 70 Roadrunner 440 six-pack race car I will keep. This is a good girl and I am 100% ready to marry her. She is a text book ideal girlfriend, has a great family, and truly has my back no matter what. She has two horses that she competes off of so she knows how much money expensive hobbies will take from you and supports my restorations and racing. Hopefully I can raise the capital to start the process soon!

If she has her own horses, she is a keeper!

 

[superbee_68]

The embarrassing part is, she drives a nearly brand new dodge dually 4x4 with a cummins and I drive a half ton dodge 4x4 with a hemi. She has a 25 foot gooseneck with living quarters for pulling the horses. I have an old beat up open car trailer with a wood floor for pulling the roadrunner to the track. It's always embarrassing when I'm driving her truck and people notice the pink zebra cummins girl front license plate. She is bringing just as much if not more than me into this soon to be engagement. And we both love "horsepower," whats not to love.

Hey Rob,
congratulations!

Money saver tip #1: Don't buy a specific 'engagement ring', but buy a wedding band set and give her the 'big half' as an engagement ring. It shows you are committed to getting married and it will save you a bundle in the long run. Let's face it...what happens to an engagement ring once married? It sets in a jewelry box...or gets sold (at a loss) later on.

I'm glad you made it back! Was she worth the drive?

I appreciate the advice Dako. I'm know pretty much nothing about rings so I need all the help I can get. I think I'm pretty lucky because the rings she has shown me so far are very simple, has one large center stone and two smaller outer stones with a simple band. She said she would rather put more money down on the house then me buy a ridiculous ring. I can't wait for the first person to send me money and buy something so I can get this show on the road!

Want More advice? do what she wants, an buy the ring she prefers, as she sounds quite practical. Most people in their 20's aren't looking at houses, and they should be. The car was better than described, but I'm definitely selling
the 15x8 mangel wheels, I prefer the stock look.

 

[mcmlvii]

She has two horses

Wishing you the best. Sorry about the horses....

The car looks awesome! I agree, wheels have to go. Should be an easy fix. I'm glad you took the car home, it is now in good hands.

I have to give credit where its due for even being able to even consider buying a house this young. My parents paid for school so no student loans and I got a great job when I graduated. I started the process of building credit when I was 19, my dad's advice, so that I would be able to buy the truck I drive now and qualify for a loan on a house. Mom kept me from trying to jump into a house too soon on an FHA loan with a huge PMI payment and getting locked in to an area that I don't really like in a neighborhood with an HOA, all would have been horrible mistakes. I have had a lot of help along the way and I am very grateful. Once I get my shop, I plan to restore my dad's old rusty 70 chevy pickup. For some reason that I cannot figure out he loves the thing. I also plan to continue to make mom's GTO faster. She says it doesn't feel fast anymore, what a cool mom.
