Build dashboard
A single overview of the current financial position, build health, phase progress, finish-line scenarios, and next action.
Personal Edition · Microsoft Excel
The entire build. One organized system.
A complete Excel-based planning and tracking system for classic-truck restorations, restomods, hot rods, and long-term project builds.
See the finish line before the next purchase
Know the cost, the plan, and the next move.
Track acquisition cost, purchases, refunds, parts sales, included value, future needs, wants, tasks, fitment, measurements, photos, and the projected final cost—without counting the same part twice.
Your build changes. The system is designed to change with it. Required parts can stay separate from upgrades. Sold components and refunds stay visible. Purchases can be linked back to the future plan. Active blockers, measurements, and sourcing decisions stay attached to the build instead of depending on memory.
Three finish-line forecasts
Separate what you need from what you want.
Every future item lives in one plan. Classify it once, decide whether it belongs in the current build, and see what each version of the finished truck will cost.
Needs-Only FinishEvery non-excluded item classified as a Need—the minimum realistic path to a complete truck.
Current Planned BuildAll Needs plus the Wants and Upgrades you have committed to include in the current plan.
Full Wish ListEvery non-excluded future item, including upgrades still under consideration.
Workbook features
Built around how projects actually go.
