Bill, hard to value the quality of the fit and finish on your car from the peanut gallery...but you can't build much of anything today for less than 30k....a solid base car that needs paint and normal bodywork is going to cost 10-15k...that doesn't count driveline, interior, and all the little stuff...how about this for an answer..if I gave you a check for 30k could you find and buy another car equal to yours????? if so...if not....the hats in there, you find it.
