Wheels and tires $950 minus $400 i sold the originals for $550
Clutch $375 (Ram HDX)
Resurface flywheel $30
Slave with throut bearing $75
2nd gear, 1-2 syncro, steel 3-4 fork and bronze pads $400 (installed myself)
Powersteering tank $45 (broke upon removal)
Factory windshield molding $50
Edlebrock cat back $350
Plugs and wires $75
Oil and filter (trans and engine) $60
Drivers mirror $45
Both fenders $125
SLP lid $95
10 cases of budlight $150 (gotta keep the friends and family happy)
Total $7925, I'm sure there more that will be spent on it and problay some things left out, but all and all i have a one of a kind car that has every and i mean every nut and bolt removed and inspected. And looking at the calender we started on this car around 2nd week in April. So not to bad for basicly 2 guys working on weekends and acouple nights a week.

No new pics this time, but i finished up the exhaust, rebleed the brakes and clutch and took it for a ride. I didn't go far since theres still no front clip on it but the tranny worked fine and it is in major need of an alignment but everything worked the way it was suppose to. Front clip is painted and hopefully we can put it on monday night and get it in for an alignment sometime next week.

That car is going to look sweet. I can't wait to see it when you are finished. I will be keeping an eye on this thread.
I would subscribe to this thread if I knew how to

Goods good I think you need a little more black though. I would have gone with the sail panel being black and then either a black manta or 35th ann. stripes, but its up to you man.

Do you have any engine or drive train plans for it? I assume its pretty much a stock SS right now (other than the badass paint of course).
Please let us know when you do...I'm interested to see what you decided to do. Looks very nice though!!!
