Re: Resto gone bad!

For guys like us, restoring these trucks is just a hobby. The two frame off resto that I completed, took over a year for me to finish (every weekend), I farmed alot of the body work out to various shops and had good friend paint both of 'em in a rented paint booth. Doing it yourself is the only way to go on the budget or you will be way over your head on the actual value of the truck, after the fininshed product is on the street or in the garage with drool all over it. If you want a serious show truck, take it to a professional shop - rod or resto and be prepared to kick out the BIG Bucks.
