Re: need a group hug ! and a truck!
In today's times building anything will cost you over $50,000.And most of us will never finish are projects.Paint is the Killer 10,000 for a decent paint Job.All the rubber and the carpet and Seat covering and foam.In side a AC cab if you put it back factory will cost you 5000.00 wire harness seat ducting gauge column carpet and if you have cancer then your in trouble.I see Kids buying clunkers that don't run and are beat to death.Not worth it any more.The old carb Engines will no longer Do.Fuel injected now rules and that will cost you 7000.00 for motor and trans and harness with a low mileage.
My uncial is a car builder He says Buy a car that is running and almost Done for 15,000 to 20,000 most of the headaches will not come
I own 9 trucks 3 of them run I own a Mock up 1970 Nova I've been gathering parts for this car for over 8 years.I have the 396 with a 400 trans got the bucket seats Bought a 1969 center column horse shoe shifter Bought a used big block AC case from a 1969 SS car Got a front end out of a 1972 4 door Nova with a 350 with Air and power steering and power brake and disc brakes.
So its a mock up car never going to build it But at least its has all the parts to turn it into a Nice big block Nova
