I would use it for a deposit on a Vehicross

To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Build Angelina 2.0 then sell the black lwb to make funds for my e46 330d bimmer
. A grand would sort me out nicely tbh My 2.8 shorty - now sold, and comments here My old dti - now sold "Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "WOW --- What a Ride!" This vehicle runs on 100% recycled dinosaurs
Re: £1000 to spend on your truck ??
Buy another 2.8 lwb for lanning, general toy and as a spare truck for work. This would then in turn allow for a gentler life for the one I've already got and allow me to do more intrusive maintenance as required on both because I wont need to get it on the road for work quiet so quickly.
Oh, I would also bung a bit on top and get a new turbo, brake callipers, wheelbearings and possibly a steering pump. Not because they are needed now but they are getting harder to get hold off and I don't plan on changing the truck for a few more years yet. This posting may have been helpfull, on the other hand probably not... Either way, I may have had drink when posting it in which case it's probably not as helpfull as it could have been
Work safe, and remember all technical problems can be resolved with a hammer, the trick is knowing where to hit it and how big a hammer to use (I often find it may also help to have a spare bit in the shed to replace the bit you have just mullered  )Work in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you.... 'O-no' the truck. Comments on 'O-no' the truck may be left here Work in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you.... 'Truck' Comments on 'Truck' the truck may be left here Owning a 2.8 is a hobby in it's self...
