    Yeah, $1400 might be OK if it runs & you like a nice project. Hell, $3k is probably fine if you like a nice project.

    Interior’s about $200-$300 in material. They’re fun to make.

    Top’s a $300-$400 job for a top person. If you feel you must.

    Brakes, new tires. New wheels (imho) and weld-in beam adjusters from cip1: $800-$900

    What are we up to? $1500 or so? And in the end it’s worth $3k maybe, depending on how she shines up. Or you get her painted for another $1000.

    That’s still way less than I have in mine.

    Every now and then, your faithful admin has to make a suggestion.

    Here’s this week’s:

    A subject line like “he called me back” really doesn’t help anyone. Subjects should be at least a little informative and obviously relate to the content of the thread. I always keep in mind that while we address immediate questions and situations, we are also building an historic record of useful info.

    Off my soapbox now. Thanks for reading.

    I fixed the links to the craigslist ad.

    I cannot explain it…but sometimes just typing the url is enough for the forum software to recognize the text and make it a live link. Usually, you have to type it (or paste it in), then hi-lite the url and click the icon that looks like the earth with a chain link.
