1. Disassembly is a piece of cake, the easiest.
2. Cleaning parts is a piece of cake.
3. Repairing chassis and sheet metal is a little more difficult.
4. Inspecting/measuring drive train parts for wear, a little more tedious, but necessary.
5. looking for replacement parts can be a real PAIN especially if they are not readily available.
6. reassembly and adjustment of parts, a BIG pain if you don't have the tools necessary to do it.
7. A parts and repair manual covering the vehicle are an ABSOLUTE must on any resto job. They give you the assembly order, measurements, and adjusts to make the job much easier.
