Too much.
I dumped over $8k into it this year already and its still slow and has some issues.
That doesnt include the purchase price last summer.

RE: How much have you spent so far?

I'm putting together a list of stuff to order this weekend. I was working on the car this past weekend and man, there's so much shyt that needs to be fixed!!! [:@] It looks as though the previous owner had started selling parts off the car. I'm missing all kinds of lil shyt!

This weekend I'm getting:

Radiator
Condenser
Harmonic Balancer
Rims & Tires
Gears (prob 4.10)
Gaskets

Then there's the cost for manual labor ...

This will take my total to close to

10G's!!!!

RE: How much have you spent so far?

probably around 3k with random repairs

most of my money is spent on items around the motor

very satisified with what i got into it and how it performs

stock rearend, stock tranny and stock motor with 170,000+ miles although you could never tell

she's not exactly "babied" either. work hard. play hard.
