I doubt he is building a Buddy Hale type build. I will have less than 15 in mine once I am done. That is counting my high priced interior and my motor. James already has a good motor. He needs body work, paint and interior. I doubt those will add up to 30K

Not going to spend 30k!
Going to spend money on body work first much I can.
What the plan... Just simple like my 68, nothing like Ryan W. Bug.
