    PSA:
    For those wondering, the "OBS" moniker Rob keeps repeating ad infinitum here stands for
    "old body style" - as in the more squared-off designs prevalent in domestic pickups up until
    the obnoxious "jelly bean" era of design took over in all facets of vehicle design in the early 90's -
    a design theme that continues more or less in all passenger vehicles to this day.

    This guy is brilliant.
    The problem is once it takes so long to acquire a Chevy that you can barely afford it you dump so much money into it,then you love it and you know you can't just go and buy another cause they hard to get from someone,minimum it gonna cost you if you buy it cheap,by the time you fix it up the way you want it you could have 5 grand into it.
    Yes there's other truck you can buy and sell but it's different once the truck been rusted bad.
    If you got the money to do then do it.
    The issue is some people have so much money but they are too lazy and sick to work on a truck and if they do they never finish it.
    90's gm truck are awesome,if you got the money to put into it just make sure you do it right.
