How about $40,000.  Hope I am close.  That is all I will say at this time.

Paul:

 

Are you looking at budget for a guy building at home?  A pro fab shop?  Who's motor?  Full motor or just a head?  What seat?  Which belts?  How much paint?  Rebuilt tranny or the one that came with it?  Data?  Cameras? 

 

I'm fairly certain I could have a solid '99 built for less than that, and make it look half decent.  Maybe I'm cheap but $40K is a big number.

1.6L forever!  Bring on your '99's and '01's!

Are you asking how much it would cost to buy one?  That is all I will ask at this time.

There are standing ads in the classifieds suggesting it can definitely be done for less that $40k.
