The above listed costs are just the large ticket items. There are too many expences under $500 to list here. However I did add up all my reciepts. To say the least I was shocked! Knowing the kit cost, and a rough idea of the engine parts costs I was thinking someing in the mid to upper 50's. HAH! Silly me.
Total reciepts come to an all in cost of $72,171 not including DMV costs of $239..
I estimate 1500 hours of labor over 10 months at 6 hours a day, 6 days a week.
The only used part on the car is the "shifter". Everything else was bought new or hand made. This is the cost of being a perfectionist. Its who I am! I'll never get out of it what I put into it, but that was never my intention. I just wanted to build the best Cobra Roadster I could.
