Well for me it would have been a easy choice - the Mooecow thread was a guy so out of his depth that he copped a fair bit of razzing for trying on what looked to be a hopeless basket case. As the thread on he learned then began to really make that truck come together till it became restoration magic. The results were jaw dropping esp given what Mooecow started with... and then he did it again with the Divco. The first is easily the more memorable just because of what he started with.

Or I could have picked KB's WRC rally tank but we havent really been showing that one off :)
