Ok guys, here's my situation:
My '53 3100 needs a motor rebuild. I have gotten a quote for $2,700 to pull the motor, rebuild it, fire it up, and install back in the truck.
-or-
I can pull it in my garage, rent a cherry picker, take it to the shop complete, rebuild it, and bring it back home and install myself. I did not get a rough quote on this.
Which would you do? Is $2,700 a deal?
Im just worried about the shop because I dont want my truck scratched and banged up.
Also, anyone know how much it is to rebuild the original 3 speed? Figured it might be a good time to do this too since I'll have the motor out.
Thanks!
