    Not so mad at all when you remove a hug cap-you get to look at them I am pretty much the same way partially why I don’t like to start projects I go way overboard when I do.

    Well by the photos and what I’ve seen and heard I would guess between eight and 12 Gs all depends on what you’ve done total ground up or just clean up interior exterior tire condition air lines bolts bramble pits brake shoes air valves etc. etc. how deep did you actually go from what I hear heard antiques are skyrocketing I’m not sure about commercial trucks… cars are out of sight right now good luck Why did you buy it in the first place ha ha … bob
