Smile Re: Ground up Resto

Be careful....many (most?) full tear down restoration projects never get completed....just posted for sale as is.
KX57 brings up some very good points and methodology.....but....most guys (girls?...not so sure) unfortunately don't or won't do this approach.
Most guys walk out to their truck with tools and just start removing stuff....this might be different for you.
You can have these trucks completely apart in probably less than a week.
That creates excitement...however the road back..is years long and 5 figures worth of cash.
Give it some serious, major thought and if you are married (or engaged or?) make sure you have a complete discussion with your spouse.
Remember...the for sale ads are full of unfinished projects for some good reasons and you don't want to be one of those guys (or girls) and statistics.
All Good
