Need your help guys n gals...again
Did not read all the response...hopefully this has already been mentioned. Not trying to be harsh here but you need to man up and accept the fact that building a car is just not feasible...given your apparent situation. Nothing wrong with accepting the fact that somethings are just not meant to be. Very little about this hobby is "cheap". You mentioned paint in a post....now granted I did not go with lowest $ paint out there but just in materials there is close to 3k in the paint of our car. If you are not capable of doing the labor your self plan on at least that much in labor. Even a simple motor build is going to be in the $2500 or so range. Tack on at least another $1500 or so, minimum, for all the nickel & dime crap for the motor. Interior parts are not exactly cheap. Add up what you think it is going to cost and then add at least a 25% buffer to it...We all have our dreams, the smart folks are the ones that realize what they can/can not afford and basing what they do on that.....not what they want....
