Brian - the answer to your question of whether this can be done by a single person is that it depends on your current martial status. If you are now single, it is unlikely that you can do these types of jobs without some female convincing you to marry her, at which point you will not be single. She will be infatuated with your patience, perserverance, and your love of perserving old trucks. On the other hand, most married men with the old car habit run the high risk of being kicked out of their marriage due to a wife's perception that the truck holds a place of higher esteem than the wife. Just be careful mixing wife and truck. good luck ! - gobsow
