Sound like maybe I shouldn't plan on having a budget. It'll cost what it costs. I plan on doing everything myself with the exception of machining(no lathe). Compliments of my sons leftover XR4Ti bits and my big pile of crap (as wife calls it) stored in the garage ,I have the turbo engine (hope its good, was a spare), t9 trans, irs rear or a 10 bolt GM, all wiring and computer, aluminum Merkur "spatula" wheels, steering column with aftermarket wheel, steering rack (already converted to manual) etc, 8 feet of 3" 304 stainless for exhaust and a couple of "pretty" stainless mufflers, one 5 point harness and welded aluminum seat, all brakes are practically new (including braided lines) and bearings were done recently. I have some aluminum and steel in the garage, but not much tubing. I should also have a roll of new brake and fuel line out there. Have a new Autometer mechanical speedo and new sunpro gauges somewhere. Sunpro tach is still on the column in my old work truck. Even have flat black and "Ford Blue" paint, leftover hardener, thinner etc. Have MG Midget seats but were told they wouldn't fit. Also have lots of other bits around.
Maybe my wife is right...... I do have a lot of "crap" out there....good, it should keep costs down.
