I would say like 15-20k plus a donor car for the swap. It's about 450-500 hrs

And even at 20k you'd only be making $40 an hour, most shops charge around $100.

He wont have overhead though or any of that, just profit for him, so that's a good price for him. Not saying its not worth the price, just saying i feel like its priced fairly for the amount and quality of work.

Earlier there was mention if a honeymoon.
You must have found 1 wicked chick. All the time in your garage.
So, there is some overhead. Just not in the form of cash. Lol

So you're in flint, going to Kettering? Where I'm planning to transfer.

Anyways where you are in canada is only about 2 hours from me, well worth it. Make a meet sometime and you can count on me being there.

Steve I wish. I had dreamed of a project like this a few years back. I just didn't have the time or money for such a project and I need my car on a daily basis so I have just done things to it that I can have fun with and still drive from day to day. One day I think I will buy a rwd v8 car again. We recently got my wife a mini van so my new car is next! lol

Anyway this project is awesome. Look forward to seeing it somewhere, especially after you get those fenders all done up right.
