Assuming you need both quarters "Fixed" and the A frame I'd say you have 6 days right there, best case.

You'll have three days for minor body and two days to roughly block it out

That's 11 days or 88 hours so $8800.

There will be $2000 in materials.

That's you supplying all the parts and getting a car in primer that will still need final blocking, sealer and paint.

And it's probably best case - $10800


The only place I am aware to get quarters is auto metal direct. If needed, this is where I would most likely get my metal. I have seen (as I am sure many of us have) many projects that have been started, stripped and abandoned because the cost was too much. I just don't want to jump in and end up with a car that is useless. Right now it drives and looks good from 25 feet. Thanks for the info guys, this is good information to consider.


Mopar or no car
