Restoring any big rig can turn into a bottomless money pit. Tandem axles in particular add four more tires to the mix, more brakes, and in the case of an actual dual drive setup, a complete extra rear end and a power divider. Some places have different driver's license requirements and commercial vehicle inspections to deal with on vehicles above a certain gross weight rating and/or air brakes. Unless you have a specific need for a truck that big and the shop facilities and mechanical experience to get it on the road, it might be a good idea to pass that one by! Jerry
