I don't think anyone can give you any sort of a number based on a list of parts. The real deciding factor is how they are all put together with regards to fit/finish/design/quality and without any pics, impossible to say. All the bells and whistles in the world won't carry a build if it's got no street appeal or quality. Doug

I guess the right price is what you need to be happy and what someone is wiilling to pay for it. In my opinion, I couln't start to recoup my labor and wouldn't try, but I got a lot of enjoyment and satisfaction building it...so much so...I'm starting build number two.

Bob Henry is correct. You should start a build thread in the Build Journal section of this forum. Having the build well documented is a plus to any prospective buyer. Besides, we want the entertainment! :lol:

:thumbsup: :applause: The best advertisement is to have a build thread. And yes we direct folks looking to those threads if the build is what they are looking for.
