I'm going to guess in the end, not including the purchase of the car itself, $150-200k, maybe even more. Looking forward to seeing the end result.

Very cool! I forgot to ask you in your I'm back thread but why did you use your perfectly good car to do this? Seems like it would have been allot cheaper to find a wrecked car or even a Body In White car. Just curious

No where near that much. Not even over $100k

Plus I really like this car and felt it needed an upgrade.

Yup just a bit over $30k from intake to oil pan. Which is actually really cheap.

I haven't posted in forever and was quite surprised to see this thread. Welcome back, the car is looking nasty. When are you expecting to have it done? BTW did you ever get a video camera?? LOL just busting your b@lls.
