Depending on how much work the chassis (also suspension) and engine needs, the cost of body work is like pissing in a lake.. I have $9,000 in my car and I have not touched the body yet.

Its always dependent on how good a car you start out with, but I would say easily 12k to do a decent restomod. I think the running total (theres always something more to add) for me is somewhere in the neighborhood of 18. As soon as your done with it make sure you call up hagerty or some sort of classic car insurer! All State neglected to tell me for the first year I had my 65 with them that if I were to total it I would only get 2500 for it!? what the #&$&&%*%!? hahahaha protect your butt!

They gave me the run around as to why it would only be covered for 2500, but in a nutshell it was due to all the mods, and they really frowned on the nitrous.
