Updated Cost Today . . .
Costs :
So, if you haven't seen it, I have been keeping a running list of all the parts and what they cost in post #9. [page 1]
I update the list every so often. This is a little painful, but realistic.
Copied from post # 9 :Total As Of: 8/19/20 - $ 12,283 [So Far - edited 8/19]
Note: This cost was offset by the sale of my 401 drivetrain .. so subtract $2500 from the total.
So actual cost is now at $9,783.
EDIT: Oops.. and AC system !
Now, keep in mind I have bought all new parts, and am trying to build it right. I need a very reliable vehicle to do a cross country road trip.
I wanted to document this as build costs are often not discussed.
I think folks think this can be cheap.. it often is NOT.
Be prepared...
