how much is invested in your ride

Reply #45
I'm not even gonna try to figure it out to the dollar.....way too many things over too many years but I'll guarantee I've spent over 30K US on it since I bought it back in '91 including the initial investment of $5200 US (by todays exchange rate) to buy the car, fix it and paint it. The rest has been spent on mods with the biggest wallet killers being the engine and current wheel/tire combo........






......BUT IT WAS WORTH EVERY  PENNY!!!:2c:

.....and I'm still not finished.:evilgrin:

Car $1,000 (yeah the car in the sig only cost me $1,000:D and it looked like that when i bought it)
Heater core $300 (didn't feel like doing it myself)
$300 for 88 Sport rims and tires.
*edit* almost forgot $600 for rear end rebuild with FMS Traction Lock and 3.73 gears

So $2,200 bucks and it looks like that. Not bad huh;) .
88 Thunderbird LX: 306, Edelbrock Performer heads, Comp 266HR cam, Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, bunch of other stuff.

If I kept track I would have given up by now! NOT. I do have a couple cigar boxes full of tickets. I bet some where around 3-4000. And the car was free. I haven't even started on the body. Also no onecan see the suspension rebuild and under coating.
