non-wrecked srt-4 on ebay = $8k-$20k

wrecked srt-4 on ebay= $3,500

srt/1st gen swap = $3,500

srt/2nd gen swap = $3,500


this kid arguing that it wouldn't cost $6k it would only be $2k at most and then watchin him eat his words,


PRICELESS!

i guess it has to do with the fact that his dad is a "body" guy.
i guess the idea of him splicing together a frankenstein that could end up crackin in half on the freeway in front of my wife or yours and cause a death was way less scary than doin an engine swap.

well fella, "your dad" did a hell of a job. kudos to him for his amazing magic. but you should have never allowed him to do that. a solid 2nd gen with a blown engineand an srt hood was all you needed. damn what a waste of time!

whenyou can find me an srt-4 that is perfect with 34,000 miles for 6,000 let me know. Thanks for your opinion but it is completely missing the point that this was a father son project that i could learn something from not a forum for ignorant people like your self to poke at, for everybody that has been supportive thanks ill have pics up soon. and yes boxer the paint job was with a gun and the pain cost $170 for 1 pint i think. Dodge flame red.

Waiting on pics.

Time spent with your dad doesn't have a price tag at all.

I don't see much of a differnce from back in the day, when people would cut frames and weld them together.
