Age old saying and said a lot. Spend a little on the buy, spend a lot on the build. or Spend a lot on the buy, Spend a little on the build. You have to find the balance that you want and can afford. But yea just in a curios thought I took a catalog and started with a frame and just started adding all the list price parts from fully body metal to engine. when I hit 50k i stopped adding and the interior was not even on my list yet. sure you could piece it together with used, found, bought, stolen parts but how long is it going to take you to fine those parts unless like he said. your in a johnny cash mood.
