Ah, but that's a reasonable price for something as low-key exotic vintage as an '80s F-150. They're beautiful cars, just like in the article photos. A decent quality Power Ram 250 can go for $35k (and they'll run for another 500k miles in that condition) so 25-50k for an electric restoration isn't that bad.
- mywittyname 5y agoCost is not the only factor, the other one is time. Merely getting an old, broken vehicle back on the road is lot of work. Completely restoring a vehicle to like-new is an order of magnitude more work. Adding in an equipment swap from one version of a model to another (maybe auto->manual swap, or V6-V8 swap) is again so much more work. Complete conversions like this take an insane amount of time. Probably months of time working on it full time. Part time, you're looking at a multi-year project. There is going to be a lot of trailblazing going on here, and there might only be 3 people in the world who can help you answer your problem.
