Ed,
I bought a '55/1st 4400 flatbed. Both of my boys were just learning to drive. We drove the old truck around the block ONE time, then dismantled it for the father/son restoration, and there it sits!!
I consider this to be one of the '
dumber ' things I have done. If your rig is in any kind of shape, I would drive it now, enjoy it now and fix it later, or not fix it later.
As you are driving it around, maybe something more desirable will pop up, or someone will offer you a bazillion dollars for it.
My restoration has stalled. Had I left it alone and just driven it, I would have two boys that could double-clutch with the best of them.
As they say...my two cents!
Stuart
