$5K I would say no..... there are so many things that will cost yuo $20 here and there it will add up. Also you will have about a $1500 in paint supplies even if you are doing it yourself.
Not sure what all you are doing or how far you want to take it but I have everything but glass and I am $35k plus my time.
If I do anything with paint such as flames or graphics that I cant or dont want to do myself I will have another $5k in it.
Good luck with your build but I am finding out that this is not as cheap as I was hoping for.
But then again we might want different results

Well i just got my American Autowire 22 man it looks Hard!!
But i will read it 10 time before the car ever gets here. That should help. Oh and i got some adapters to go from center bolt vlave covers to old type fined valve covers. So now i can run the Cal customs 7 fin covers i have.
That should look bettr man the look of center bolts is not good.
So next is the seat and the heaters for it.
Hey if i get a power track from the junk yard do you think i can make it fit the wise guy or tea seat? They want to much for power for me.

Davyboy, I just ordered a bench seat from Wiseguys for my '32. It was $720 {app.} for the seat & foam straight from Wiseguys. After I ordered it I saw that Street Rods by Michael sells the Wiseguy seats cheaper. But you might want to do a search under my name {billlsbird} and check out the replys that I got on seat questions. A bunch of info with pictures on using junk yard seats. What fits, what doesn't & such. VERY informative to say the least.
Also remember; fuel pump & lines & fittings & regulator. Fuel cell or original tank? Gauges? Transmission shifter? ... Bill
