Re: Is this a good idea or a bad idea?
Rebuilding one of these trucks to take on a long journey, and hopefully many more, is an excellent idea. That is the ultimate use for my trucks when I rebuild/restore them. Running around local for chores and leisure or hit the road and lookout over that hood at many miles ahead. Running down the Flats? Not a bad idea, if that is a dream of yours. You'd need to look at the rules and figure out what class and what is required.
I was in Flagstaff with my '69 Dodge W200 Power Wagon Utiline when they were having their first mud bog. It had big tires and everybody was telling me I had to enter it. But, I wimped out because I didn't want to break anything on my only vehicle. But, I would consider running what I drove at Bonneville.
