Alright, so as I said above, I do want to do this. I thought it would be good to come up with an estimate of what's in store financially before I jump in. You guys can correct or question my guesses here.

I want to buy a 2-wheel-drive 1964-1966 Chevy pickup that runs well and has little rust. I want the inline 6 three-on-the tree. I want it to be mostly stock when I get it. Then I want to make it safer and pretty. That in mind,

The Truck: $4,000
Convert to Power Steering: $600
Convert to Power Breaks: $800
Move the gas tank: $250
Two Seat belts (3, 4, or 5-point harness): $200
Vinyl Seat Cover: $200
A new chrome bumper: $200
A decent paint job: $1,500
Jack stands: $50
Miscellaneous tools bought and rented: $200

Total Cost: $8,000

I tried to overestimate when I wasn't sure of the cost of something. What am I missing? Where are my guesses way off?

Thanks!
Steve.
