It sounds easy, but when you want to fix that fender, then you take it off, before you know it you can have yourself talked into having the whole front clip off to detail the engine, then the frame, so the body comes off. Before you know it you have it torn down and undriveable. Take it from me, I've done it. I have a swb stepper thats sitting in my garage. It was running and driving and pretty much only needed paint. I got carried away and now it's in a million pieces. Still needs paint. If you can control yourself, it can be a good deal. If not, buy the truck and get a beater car/truck while you fix this one up. If the price is right, I wouldn't pass on it. I hope this helps you a little.
