Re: Basket case, what do I look for? New to the hobby.
Hi Jim,
Here is my two cents worth. Both camps are correct you should buy one that is running and enjoy it,never to know it,need what makes them tick. You should also buy that one-especially for 3500-IF:
A) you have space
B) you have the mechanical skills. They are not complex but they do have their quirks
C) most importantly you have the time and drive. It looks like you just have the body to do from the pics. The mechanical stuff can be gone through relatively easily and quickly since the body is off.
Those are the two sides of the coin. If you opt to get it buy some pizza and root beer and have the local club come over to give you a hand. The truck will be together inside six months. Pizza and beer will cut it down to two months😀.
Mike
