All wheel drive.



In that case I'll do it myself.  Just need a saw, a welder, duct tape 
and bailin' wire and I could have it done in a week.  Dont forget a 
couple cans of Krylon.  But seriously, I think I could do it myself 
just fine for a fraction of the cost.

I would suspect the $50K is for all the custom fabrication, body prep 
and
painting and rebuilding
all the engine and drivetrain components as opposed to the cost of the
"junkyard" parts that are
needed to start the construction.
