I don't know if anyone mentioned this, but the thing that hit me hardest when I was doing the frame up is the bodywork. I don't know if you plan to do your own, but if you do, you HAVE TO BE PATIENT. If you are not patient on your bodywork, it will come out looking like a golf ball with all of those dimples. If you plan to do the body work, read some books or talk to some professionals to get some ideas of techniques and where to start. Bodywork is the part of the project where I got to and started to think about selling my truck. In hindsight, I am very glad I didn't, but wish that I would have taken more time one bodywork and paint.
If I could say one thing, it would be this. Do it right the first time so you don't have to redo it. That is the biggest lesson I learned on the frame up on my truck.
Have fun and take your time.
