With money & time,the skills are optional..if your not capeable of fixing it up,for money,a lot of other guys who can are easily hired!..
With me it's the ability to be lying under a truck or bending over,and lifting heavy things that I cant deal with now..(and the money isn't there either,but I have lots of time)..
Chevy 6 in it?...wonder what happened to the IHC "Diamond" straight 6 that was probably in it..those things were about indestructible..those old IHC's were built like tanks,and had that neat "odd ball" quirky styling,I like the curved rear side glass that looks like the old Wagoneers in the 50's..at first glance I though it was a early 1950's Suburban..that would be sweet on a later GM 4x4 frame with P/S and disc brakes..
