Other than the 7&8" wheels, and those flares, the car is going to look stock on the outside. Long term it will be the mechanicals that get the full once over to make it drive as good as it looks. I'm just guessing, but I suspect when I am "done" I'll be into it for close to $50k. Thank dog it's only half that up front and I can put $5-10K into it yearly for the next 5 years while I enjoy it.

I've been feeling the same about IB cars as well. I think the factory did a good job compared to other makes regarding the 5 mph bumpers.
Matt, I have a 74 parts car if you have a list of what you need to get out of slant nose town. Cheap!
