What to do with old truck

Hi there,

 

I recently changed my truck, not mechanical reasons etc just wanted better steering lock, bit more updated looks, bit better brakes and central locking etc.

 

Now my old truck, i changed the back on it to an alloy back, behind the cab there is space for a 19" stronghold box for tools, then there is the tipper back.

 

Its a good truck, old 2.5 transit engine but turbo'd and its a good strong tipper.

 

Just considering my options,

 

1, whether to remove the back and keep it for my new truck.

 

2, sell with the back on as more saleable. I weighed the truck the other week and it weighed 2150 kg, thats with me at 70 kg and then my extended sides on and a head board! so it weighs in the region of 1950kg - 2000kg

 

3, just keep it as its bought and paid for

 

 

I must admit, i do get attatched to things and struggle to let go sometimes

 

will put up some pics if necessary, just after some opinions

when I got my new truck I sold it and at the time was happy I made the right choice but looking back I slightly regret it as if I had kept hold if it for a year then I would now have a use for it as work has picked up. also I did consider giving it a spray and new graphics and just use it as a advertising board by parking it in busy areas!!!
