Great work. Looks great. Can't wait to see the finished product.

I'm really curious to know a ballpark figure on this type of bodywork, right through to final paint.

Can anyone throw an approximate figure out there for me?

I'm keeping a record of money's spent, so I'll post a total at the end. I had the rust work done as I wasn't confident of a good result. Outside of the engine work and trimming of the seats, I intend to do the rest myself.

With respect to the rust work, $4,420 in labour and $1,767 in panels. But you will notice from the photos that there is still a fair bit of panel beating and panel preparation to come before painting begins.

Pretty spot on there...painting can reach high $$ depnding what you want...show car...daily driver. If you do as much as you can yourself $ can be saved spent on the drive line :twisted:
