Musings: Restoration = Money loss! (ALWAYS)

I follow the trends very closely and have found that the market shifts between cars and trucks. Trucks can be good money makers because you can restore them fast if you know what you are doing and turn them. I once made 14 grand on a 71 c10 shortbed Chevy and put very little into it. Sold it at Barrett Jackson. It was nice but it wasn't anything special. Chevys are cheap to restore and you can find parts at any swap meet. It just happened that those trucks were hot at the time and everybody wanted one. Buy smart like everyone says and try to find desirable Mopars to turn because they cost double to restore. Read the market.
