Anything additional he wants you can negotiate with him at the time. $550 for Labor isn't bad as a start for all the work involved.

Unless he wants a custom truck, there shouldn't be any reason why someone couldn't build a box stock Tamiya. The manuals are some of the best in the business. Maybe you'll make a good friend in the process.

Thank you everyone for your input, greatly appreciate it.
Now I have some options to go with, and this is one reason I love this hobby. There is always someone willing to help a guy, or gal out.
Thanx again, Big John
