It's really not hard to understand how a project like this can cost so much. This isn't just a simple swap. This was obviously a full on restoration as well. The car was taken down to to nothing. When you figure a shop rate of $65 or more, that adds up very fast. A project like this can easily rack up over 2000 hours. Just do the math. Then add hardware.

Phew. Very clean. Very nice work. Love the dual exhausts, where did you get the tank? Assume that is a John's Cars kit. My guess modern motorsport control arms and Cobra brakes?

Any plans to add subframe connectors and strut bars? That thing is going to twist and shout.
