That list for just materials was over $30K
add truck,
labor to build frame and weld up storage boxes.
labor to build conversion box
labor to wire conversion
labor to plumb and install tanks and water systems
labor to rig up genny and gasoline tanks
labor to fix driveshaft issues
labor to align truck after stretching.
labor to paint cab
labor to paint grill
labor to buff out crappy paint job
labor to replace windshield original one had welding scars in it
labor to adapt seats purchased in Elkhart
labor to fix oil leak on engine
labor to install cd/video and camera system
labor to sound deaden cab
total labor right around $40K
and I spent nearly a year working on it myself
I have at least $3000 in future changes yet to be done
Does anyone just want to buy this rig for a bargain $80K??
I'm thinking of building a 5th wheel toy hauler out of a 35'-40' race car hauler.
