Re: $2000 budget to start
I've been following your story here for the last bit, being 34 with two young boys, I know where you are at, I'd love to come lend a hand but I think SK to TX is a bit to far hahaha, you have a good wealth of knowledge here, lean on it and it will serve you well. Like was said, new ignition and fuel components, get it running and running well, then start working on the brakes/tires/steering/suspension. If you can try and involve your kids with it, that way you give your wife some free time, and she will love that truck instead of resenting it, and your and your kids will build some great memories with your Dad's old truck. Good luck man, makes me smile thinking about your journey to get it going and all the trucks & cars my Dad and I brought to life, and the bikes and trucks my kids and I brought to life, it's a great feeling.
