While the dollars are fresh on my mind, (Bloody Mary not my money but it was my blood sweat and tears).
Here is a quick run down of parts some are rounded up/down dollars (so don't ask where I got something for that cheap)
2800.00 frame from Jimmy Smith (we did our own, won't do it again
1000.00 for tube
400 for seats
150 for harnesses
1000 for motor (this will greatly depend on hp, more hp more money.....ask Timmy)
2400 tires
1000 wheels
1800 coilovers
1000 links (we got a deal on 2" 7075, that deal is long past, but can still get cromo made for good deal)
600 hiems
600 misc tabs/metal
600 shifters
400 trans
400 transfer
1500 for cucv axles
1200 for lockers or cheaper to get spools or just weld them
600 upgraded outer shafts for front
I think that adds up to 18,050 or so give or take a few hundred. I've left out the countless orders to speedway for ss hoses, brake lines, fittings etc.
Oh and powder coat, cheapest found is 600.00 or you can paint yourself.
And don't forget all the welding, grinding, and countless hours of scratching your head on what to do next. Can't put a price on that.
So all that being said..........Find somebody that is tired of riding, tired of their buggy, having a baby, getting a divorce or just plain tired and buy their 40-50k buggy for 20k.
