My windshield had a small crack in it and was pretty 'dusted' from desert driving, I looked into another one, I finial found one in England, with out shipping it was $1800.

I talked to some people who changed one before and they said you really have to buy new window trim and rubber seal at another $1,000.
I glued the crack and drove it with the old windshield.
The tires were that XSX metric size, so no choices and were about $550 each.
I never looked into what a fender or bumper would cost.
I would buy a 68 Chevelle or something if I want a SBC powered car, way cheaper and the sound would match the Marque.
