I need to make a decision whether to get another pickup or to restore the old one. I have a '95 Dodge 2500 that's starting to show it's age. I've pretty much ruled out buying brand new. The truck has rust in the front quarter panels just in front of the doors and over the wheels in the back. The hood also has some minor dings. Carpet is shot and the drivers seat is worn and it needs a new headliner. The engine probably needs the injectors rebuilt, it smokes on startup, does'nt seem to have much power until it warms up for a minute or two. It's got about 200K on it. Anybody got an idea how much it would cost to do a nice body job and maybe a valve/ring job and injectors? The other alternative is to buy something 2-3 years old. I just don't want a $500 a month payment, kids are gonna be in college before long. Thanks
