$50K PLUS is the low end of the build. And yes I need to set down and put my thoughts and prices on paper. A high end build is not out of my reach (it would just take me longer to build) but it also may not be the right way to go.

Are you able to get certain parts at better prices?

Thanks.
build something that you can afford to do in a reasonable time frame. You don't want to do a long term proiject, too easy to lose interest, constantly changing directions as new things come to the market, plus even though it's cool and modern when designed could be dated by the time it's done.

Build a car that fits the budget and make further changes as money allows. You can actually plan it this way so you're not buying everything twice...........
