i got to ride in one about 2 years ago and i loved the hell out of the truck.
truck - 300
motor - 50
trans - 100
conversion kit - 300
less than 800 in a fast toy = priceless

just a little update...got the motorand trans out, stripped the interior, and took the bed off. hopefully this weekend i can get the frame cleaned up and painted.
