Post purchase sticker shock
Posted: Wed Mar 27, 2013 8:25 pm
Well, I am now full bore into the KBS5 restoration. I just added up what I have spent on parts alone, and had a case of "post purchase sticker shock". I wasn't too badly scared by any of the individual prices.
Tires - $1700
Wiring harness - $400
rubber gaskets set - $425
headliner, floor matt, firewall liner and misc - $525
Paint job - $4000
Misc supplies, parts - $600 +/-
Glass - $425
Seat Upholstery - $325
Total so far: $8400 I estimate yet another $500 - $700 of misc. items/parts
Not complaining, but whining a little. However, when I am done, I can truly say "this was done right". Now to get me some cheese for that whine..........................
