Re: about to sink 25-30k into my 1989 Suburban..is it worth it? pics included

Make sure the shop you use is a reputable shop that has done a ton of COMPLETED VEHICLES.
Some shops just do the fab work and then ship them out to body shops to finish the paint work and etc.
Are they doing all the rewiring? Replumbing brakes and fuel lines?
Finish work could be half your costs. Just like a house, there’s many hours and dollars in making it all look pretty.
Interior mods for the tubs?
A buddy of mine just paid a lot of money for custom carpet, because he had to modify the trans tunnel and stock “off the shelf” carpet wouldn’t fit.
Just some things to think about.

I would contact Phat Phabs in Oklahoma City, OK.
They crank out some of the nicest trucks in the country.
They can give you “real world” costs on what you are trying to do.
