Hello,
Great site. Looks like a lot of nice people on here.
I found a Power Wagon and I would like shorten my learning curve by listening and learning from people with more knowledge than I have about them. When buying a project what are the major things to look for (i.e. common rust areas, common missing parts or areas that are modified)? Is there anything that would stop a person from buying a PW project (i.e. frame damage)?
I think I found an okay project and like most I'm very excited to get started, but also know the value of listening to people who have been around these trucks. I come from the ebody world and have done restorations before, just nothing as old as a PW. I have done metal work and have most the tools I will need including a paint booth.
Thanks in advance for the help.
