How supportive is your spouse?
Is she going to be OK with the chrome goodies under the bed, the transmission in the corner of the kitchen, and parking on the curb when the project swells to the full garage? When you opt for burgers at the house instead of steaks on the town on Friday night, because that hoist is rented and costing you by the day....
Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.

Check out the following sites to get an idea on pricing for bodies and chassis. A body on a rolling chassis is the first step in getting started if you are going to build one from scratch.

It is my experience that it takes a $30,000 shop to build a $10K vehicle (cheap).

Another question, I was told this engine takes 6 quarts of oil. Is that correct? It's a remanufactured 350 with stock pan.
