Hi Rob
I just threw the $10,000 number out there off the top of my head. If one considers the following, it's not too hard to add up quickly; rebuilt flathead $3500 sandblasting and paint $2000 rebuild transmission and rear diff, brakes (assuming new bearings, seals and gaskets and you do it yourself) $500? pull and replace or repack wheel bearings, @ $35 to $50 each x 8 new fenders and associated sheet metal, just have a look at Midwest Military site for prices guages and electrical $$500-$1000 radiator rebuild $500 on and on and on.... 10 years ago when I did my 12 cab Ford cmp, the truck cost me $900 and I put another $6500 into it. Considering the drivetrain and many other components are relative, I think my $10g figure is close on doing a carrier ad I would add that that would be if you were doing most of the work yourself.

Well when this guy from ( Loydminster area ) bought this carrier the owner asked him if he would stand beside it so that he could get a photo of him with it and the (jerk) said my picture costs money and proceeded to walk away. Soooo.. I say, I think he should have paid more than he did.

Maybe the former owner wanted a picture to prove what an idiot looks like...
