Wow, thanks for the warm welcome. As for color, I think I am going to paint it semi-gloss black, similar to what it is now, just with better paint and not till I get the body work done. I love the bright glossy mopar colors, but for me, for this car, I want the subdued look. As for how much I have in it, I bought it for $2000, which at the time I thought was pretty expensive for a project, but I sure haven't seen any e-bodies at all within 500miles of here for under $4500 since then, regardless of condition. So far the only real big expenses have been the exhaust and wheels and tires, but there has been a ton of couple hundred dollar purchases. The seats, the B&M shifter, gas tank and sending unit, etc. For the last year I was working part time at a Schuck's auto parts store, so the discount came in handy on brake parts and all that kind of stuff. Overall at this point I probably have somewhere in the $5-6K range in it if you add up all the sand paper and spray paint and all that. As for the dash, this pic is the best I have. The dash itself is actually made entirely from supplies from Wal-Mart and cost me about $50. I used to do a lot of boat work so I have some fiberglass experience. Including the headlight switch, gauges, and indicator lights, grand total in the dash is $250. As you can see in the pic, the floors aren't great (new ones going in this weekend) and thats the battery cable on the floor as I mounted the battery in the trunk.
