Rebuilding a body totaled 2018 Volvo VNL Semi 760 3 Axle Youtube Video.
I'm new to their channel. Looks like they bought a body totaled 2018 Volvo VNL Semi 760 with 113,000 miles and are going to try and replace the body.
Does anyone here have the tools and ability to take on a job like this? How much would you pay for the truck and how much is a new one? Your comments? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KdqyB5rrKI |

Lot of variables to say on what one would pay i.e. miles on the drive train and what would be the purpose for it after rebuilt. I have the tools and ability to take on project like this if it's worth it for my purpose or for extra dollar. |
We have a small organic teaching farm near Eugene Oregon.
Up the road from us is Anderson Brothers Heavy Truck Dismantling. Anderson gets a truck like this, or better, every week. We investigated acquiring one as a re-builder, but the nickel-and-dime parts to get it back on the road would drive us nuts. And, then, insuring a wreck might be an issue. |

Looks like a very good candidate for rebuild assuming the frame is still straight. It could make a cost effective chassis for a RV. Just find a replacement day cab. Tools that most people have will do most of the work. You would need something like a telehandler or overhead hoist to pick up the cab. The biggest thing needed is time. There is lots of labor in a project like this.
