$107,000 Samurai Build

[spc mike]

i think someone can fab with mean skill and i can respect that 100% no matter what it looks like!

If thats worth that much, then I wonder what my pile of crap is worth if I charged myself per hour.....



$20K in parts if I bought it all new. (total guess)
30 hours a week for say 6 months at $80/hr shop rate. (total guess again)
~600 hours * $80/hr = $48,000
$2,000 for "tip / delivery bonus"

Guess mine is worth $70K if I use 'his' math.



Seriously, what type of shop rate would you have to have to be able to charge that much?

[TacoRunner]

I'll give ya $20 for it.

If money was not an option and I had a choice between yours half done for 107,000 and this one, I'd choose yours any day of the week.

Great build btw, maybe I can get down and wheel with you at TSF someday.  I'd love to see your beast at work.

only way i see 107,000 bucks in that hoopty is if there was a safe on the bottom wleded to the frame with 100,000 bucks inside...... whats so cool about it? the cage?.... not really 31's.... not really, dimple dies on the cage.... not really waste of money in my eyes.

I probably wont make 107,000 in the next 5 years..... damn

Seriously? I read all 7 pages of that. I could find 100 better things to do with 107,000 still straight axle, dual, and lock, exo, and put 40's on my truck and have around 90k to spare after buying a welder pipe bender and all the stuff to do all my own work, beer to fund the project, and buying all marlin parts.

107 g's could buy a lot of booz, whores, and smoke......

[greeny]

If it didn't have those side bars and the clutter up front it be a sick ride.

[happakidd]
