Hey, im new at this and i got my first truck last year from my grandpa for 1 doller (which i still owe) for my dad and i to restore. i have found a parts truck and the guy wants 3000 canadian. I personally think it is a bit to high so can anybody lend me on some barganing tricks or anything that can help me reduce the price. Thnx for any advice.

Welcome to the board!
I don't know if I can help you with the barganing part, but I will give you a tip.......be prepared with a plan! I bought a Suburban without a great plan and now I own three parts trucks (Well almost three one of them is in parts in the process of being restored.) What do you want to do, rod, restore or something in-between? How many parts do you need and how many parts will the parts truck provide you with? Assess your truck,write down a list fo what you need. Take pictures of it before and as you disassemble it, it will help you remember how to put it back together. Have you read any books on restoring your truck? Do you have the necessary manuals that will assist you? If not get some, they will be invaluable in your quest. Another factor to consider is where are you going to store the vehicles and will you have the necessary tools to remove the parts. This is all part of the planning and hopefully you will have help. Spend a little time with yor gramp-pa and your father and seek some of their advice, you will be glad you did in the end. And most of all have fun!
