I'm building my 68 for basically the same purpose.

Alls I can say is it will probably cost twice as much and take twice as long as you plan.

I've been working on my truck for over 2 years now and have NEVER driven it. I don't know that I will ever do another body off restoration. I fixed up my 72 GMC over the years but pretty much always kept it on the road. I thought that was more fun.

Good luck!
