M170 restoration starting...maybe

Post by ApacheWillys »

Well, I have a frame, tub, axles, springs, and drivetrain except the Dana 18. No data plates. Big concern. I am sandblasting the frame next week in hopes of finding a number stamped on the frame. Will post photos of before and after sandblasting and priming.
I am into it for $800. My limit is $10,000. Should I proceed or bail out?

I think you should proceed!! You have a good budget for the project.

Good luck keep us posted with pictures.
