How much money did you pay for it?

How much money did you put in it?

I'm interested in getting a old school but I'm not familiar with the cost for parts and labor

I paid 1800 for it

When i got it home I put 2 new tires on it ,,,new spark plugs and wires....new fuel pump and filter...new ail filter

Headers = $160

Exhaust + Labor = $400

Body work + paint and labor = ~1500-1600

so far by the end of the month I would say $2500

I want to start with the outside and then mess with the motor and the inside....


It just depends on you...Im prolly gonna throw alot of money at this because its the old school I have always wanted

Thats what up. I see you didn't need any engine or transmission work right?

Is it a ss?

Edit: just read it said ss. For 1800 that's a steal

Nice ..post more pics ..If the motor is stock the skip is probably a misfire..get one of the old school timing guns with the light adjust the distributor a couple of degrees and it will purr smoothly.
