In Reply to: how much will it cost to restore a power wagon? posted by Bill on August 01, 2000 at 12:51:42:
Come on guys. The last remodelling project my wife dreamt up for the ol' homestead ran way over original estimates and the net value added to the house's resale value was maybe 1/4 of the total cost. Right now cost overruns on home dodads and frilly-dillies will far exceed any money I am putting into my hobby vehicle. I used to keep a balance sheet but the cost on her projects will keep me in Powerwagons and MVs into my next life-time if I can spend dollar for dollar to match her "hobby". One things for certain, the old truck is never "done", just one more item checked off the "to-do" list for it. Cost including travel,parts,vehicle purchase,licenses,taxes and emergency medical care about 7 grand...I harbor no delusions about recuping that should I ever sell it. Keep 'em rolling and Keep on truckin'.
