Outstanding Peter.
When I first got into MV restoration I knew very little. Over the course of time I picked up the skills, as have you.
I remember Dad telling me not to look at the project as one big piece- that in itself would be overwhelming.
Rather, as he suggested, look at it as a whole bunch of smaller pieces. Envision each as its own sub assembly, each a project of its own. Take bite size pieces. Before you knew it I have a baffed out 12 cab Ford CMP fully restored and running. 21 months.
