I also gave $50 to the body shop for the use of the booth. I would have offered more, but money is tight right now and Lowell said he was thinking $50 anyway. Can you believe that? I had the booth tied up for an entire day, used their plastic to mask stuff, more tape, on site help and guidance, etc. It's good to make friends!
So my total spent is now $4508. Any other parts I've used so far are ones I had from parting out the various trucks, swap meets and junkyard hauls over the past few years. I just keep fixing up and cleaning old stuff and re-use it as much as possible.
