I could probably do it myself in a month *IF* I had no job (oh the irony!) and I had access to all the parts/tools/etc that I would need.

I've torn a few of these trucks down to the bare frame before and have a general idea of all the parts needed to put one back together.

You'll be at a disadvantage in that you didn't take the truck apart and you don't know what's missing.

I'll be pulling for you, but I doubt it would happen. It looks like that yard has some great parts for you to use and that cab and frame look really nice... buy a cheap 4x4 beater for winter fun and build the truck up over the winter and hit the trails with it in the spring with all the fresh rain and mud
