-notch control arm for steering
-new clutch master cylinder to cleare tires
-body drop bed
-cut out all the stock floor and sides and make a comlete frame for the walls and floor including the front walls out of 1 inch sqaure tubing.
-sheetmetal the floor and sides

sorry its a toyota 2wd single cab pickup. no pics as of right now but i mean if i were to go to a shop and say this is what i want done, what would they most likely quote me? all the work came out great but thats not what im worried about. i want to know how much a shop would quote him when he came to them intrested in getting this stuff done.

word, my brother never paid a cent for any stereo work I ever did for him (except parts), and he never charged me to fix my furnace even though it was in the crawl space and 15 degrees.

Two of the best guys I know are Nic (ssm screen name Nic)and Neal Morel, that is a brother team like no other, they are always working on each others stuff and I never heard one of them keep score.

From the local shops in fl I know you are lookin at some where in the 8K range. 3k bd 1600 in shaving and skin, controll arm clutch master and tubb another good $300 at least, and the sheetmetal bed floor would be where it got expensive.
