Classic truck restoration planner

Classic Truck Restoration Planner by Harvey Family Restoration

Bring your truck back to life with a clear plan for the work, the parts, and the money.

Whether you’re tackling a full restoration or improving your truck one project at a time, this editable Excel planner helps you keep the details together—from your first inspection to the final build records.

What’s included:

• Restoration Budget: Set spending limits across 13 categories, with automatic totals showing recorded expenses and remaining budget.
• Parts & Spending Tracker: Organize up to 100 entries for parts, vendors, part numbers, quantities, estimated costs, actual payments, and order status.
• Build Checklist: Track milestones, priorities, owners, and next steps throughout your project.
• Before-You-Buy Worksheet: Record observations and questions about a potential project truck, including rust, mechanical condition, missing parts, and paperwork.
• Quick-Start Guide: Simple instructions and color-coded entry fields help you get started.

Save a separate copy for each truck and build a useful record of what you bought, what you spent, and what still needs attention.

Your download includes one editable Excel workbook (.xlsx). No macros required. Microsoft Excel is recommended; compatibility with Google Sheets and other spreadsheet apps has not been tested.

Digital download only—no physical product will be shipped. For your own project use; resale or redistribution of the template is not permitted. Inspection prompts are organizational aids and do not replace a qualified mechanical or safety inspection.

Keep your build organized, one project at a time.
