Budgeting for a project car

After a comment from Charles at http://humblemechanic.com/, I realized I hadn’t mentioned anything about budgeting for a project car.  While I am far enough away from my project car that it doesn’t make sense for me to worry about budgeting for it, I thought I would touch on the subject.

The price of buying the car may be a small portion of the total expense of your project car.  All the parts can add up fast.  I don’t have enough experience to write up a good way to set a budget for a project car, but just be aware that it will probably cost yo umore than you think, and take longer than you think.

I have heard before that it is cheaper to buy a finished car, than to build one yourself.  That helps put it into perspective on what it may cost to build your car.

Sorry for the short post today, but I am feeling a bit under the weather.  Hopefully I will be better tomorrow and have a longer post for you.
