By the time you're done, I expect that you'll have a fully functional Super Crew plus some beer money. That's good news, because Oregon has some of the best IPA in the land.
I couldn't find my total on pricing things, but, here's how it breaks down. Sold my 1997 F150 2x4 4.6l base model extended cab with 235k miles for 2600$. Paid 1400$ for the 'new' truck. 275$ for tow. 200$ for engine/tranny. Sold tranny and random bad engine parts for 120$ (yeah cheap I know, but trying to share the wealth with another nice guy). Approx 120$ worth of parts so far - gaskets, ps pump, oil, antifreeze, and heater hose fittings. 3 million dollars worth of labor. Lol!
