Re: 72 Challenger

I've found personnally that I can build a car for a fraction of what it would cost to buy a done car. I build my 71 440 6 pack cuda for less than 25k 2 years ago and that includes purchase price of the project. I built my 70 440 6 pack shaker hood 4 speed cuda for less than 30k and that included the price of the project. I could never touch buying those cars in the condition they are in even in todays soft market for that kind of money and I show these cars. Now I have heard often from people who have had project costs get out of hand and it happens you just have to keep things in check. I don't take labor into account because for me I would be working on classic cars one way or another as a hobby so labor is not really a factor.
