"I have receipts and a build sheet if interested in looking at it. I have a estimated amount of 11,000 invested"

Another project sitting.

I made a list of all my projects. It was pretty fun until I broke out the big tasks that each one needed. Then I put that notebook away and haven't looked at it since.

Maybe in retirement, but I'm guessing the money will be tighter then and the parts more expensive.

I always figured if you had an abandoned project you'd be lucky to get half of your investment (alot of the fun is in picking out what you are going to do)

I've been working on the green truck for almost two years now and I've still got alot of time and money to go (at least it's on the road and running good)

Average frame off truck project duration must be about 2 to 4 years for weekenders like me?

I wonder if they'd let you across the border with a parts truck on a trailer.

The truck would need a Bill of Sale
You would need a negative Covid test
The Government will need their Tax $$$

As long as the trailer and tow vehicle are legal, you should be Golden.

I have never seen a Pace truck in F250 3/4 ton and I believe the rims/hubcaps on that truck are not correct. I am sure some Pace Truck gurus will chime in and set us straight, until then good read.

It was very light on BAT for some reason.

it would cost nearly that much (40k) to repeat the build.

according to the marti it’s 1 of 468 3/4 ton pace trucks.

Pretty rare

1977 Ford F-250

$4,200 CAD converts to $3,250 USD (.77 conversion today) That would cover your import fees, with $$$ to spare.

This is priced to sell FAST.
