time = money.
find a clean base shell
then time to shorten the rear end
time to cut the tubs
time to weld in new tubs
time to weld in surbframe connectors
time to do BB swap
time to build suspension
time to shave bay
how much is Your time worth??
most shops charge 100-120/hr for something like that im sure. so say theres 100 hours into the labor of the build, thats 10-12000 pre tax for a shop to do it plus parts. (probably another 12 grand)
looking at id say around 25-30,000 to pay someone to do this build.
