$3500..yeah that's what it cost me to purchase and fix the SBC 350 I got off craigslist then needed a torque converter and transmission. I thought it was an awesome deal haha.
I'm just shy of $14,000 with a running, driving, truck. That is from the day it rolled off the trailer until now. Its all a matter of perspective as I cringe at spending $800 on new brakes for my Hyundai Santa Fe daily driver, but went and spent $800 without blinking on some sweet wheels for the pickup truck.
I can't explain it really.
