A good intention Josh but isn't there a danger that, with your 75 back on the road, other things will crop up and the rebuilding project will languish? We've all seen abandoned restorations for sale with the owner saying "I just don't have the time to complete it" or "for family reasons".

We all need a little push to get things done so I think Martin Butler's plan is worth serious consideration.
