Rebelceb, no one here is trying to belittle you here. The reason that I spend my time here is because this site is full of educated, experienced, welcoming, fun-spirited folks, who freely offer advice when asked, and don't pick apart peoples rides when they have built them the way that they wanted. It truly is THE best performance car forum on the net.
There have been a couple of these "what's my $100k car really gonna cost me?" threads pop up, since I've been around and they don't ever get anywhere. You've gotten sound advice here, from some of the biggest names in the business.
You can always try what I did with my Chevelle. Truthfully, I don't have an extra $100k to blow on a car, so I did all my work myself, except spray the outside of the car, and an alignment. I also had an upholsterer stitch up my tunnel cover, but besides that it was all me. It took me over 4 years, which I know your not wanting to wait for, but that's what it took. I work alone, because I want to, not because I have to. I have under $40k in my car, and it's nice. It's a driver and that's what I set out to build. In fact, I'm going to pick my son up from school in a couple hours on it. I'm just trying to give you an option here, because shop labor is money. The type of build your wanting to do, which is pretty common here on LatG, will be lots of shop labor money. Nothing you can do about it, if you want it nicely done, unless you do it yourself.
If a 69 Camaro built the way your wanting yours built costed $60k EVERYBODY would own one.
