Welcome! You'll soon learn this forum is a great place for all of the little problems and it's a good motivational booster when you see someone else's car.
My build is looking to cost about £3500-£4000, but that includes the purchasing of tools, the tool count so far is up to £500, with that i've bought a mig welder, pillar drill, socket set, vice, cutting and flap discs, drill bits, axle stands and trolley jack as well as a lot more (I didn't have many tools to start with, but that soon changed
)
HandyAndy is looking to get his car on the road for £3000. It also depends on how many bling bits you decide to go for and how many bargains you manage to pick up.
