Welcome to the hobby! And, you have the right mind set
If you look at buying a new car or truck (Ph. Co. that I sit on the BOD for just bought a new Chevy Silverado, three quarter ton etc. etc. and is shelling out $54K before taxes and al of the extra costs) and it will be worth what, $20K in 4-5 years? So my point being, you buy a new car or truck and you will eat 20-30,000 in depreciation in just a very few years, so the money you put in a Model A Ford ain't that big of a deal
