    Ok guys i know most of you have answered plenty of question for me since I have been working on this project for a little over a year now. I baught the car for $1,500 and got her to the point were she is at right now. My goal was to create a great muscle car with all the extra goodies and keep it $10,000 or less. So far im up to $5,920.34. Keep every receipt for everything I buy down to the nuts and bolts. Here is my concept.

    Very nice! And, nice work from the before/after pictures, I must add. Have fun, it'll be great when it is done.

    I too have been saving all receipts for my Pinto project.

    Nice pictures. Like the concept as well.
    If I sell my 86 Bronco I will start on my 72 Maverick and I plan on doing the same with the before and after pictures but I won't have anywhere near the money to play with. I'll be playing with around $2200. I won't get that far on that but I'll get as far as I can and hopefully drivable at least.
    Good luck on your and have fun with it. I can't wait to be able to buy parts for mine
