Anyone else keep costs tracked on their projects?
Just curious, but how many of you guys (non-pro builders) monitor costs involved on your project vehicles? I've kept track of the costs to build my '69, even though I built it myself. I added in an estimated amount of labor per section (probably not enough) and added in a normal shop rate of $65/hour.
Summary: It would cost about $78K to duplicate my car if you paid someone to build a clone, using an authentic X55 SS. If you can turn your own wrenches, about $64K. Here is a spreadsheet that I use to keep track of everything:

Pretty sick huh? Those costs just add up quickly!
