Third Gen Restoration - Budget

Here at ThirdGenRestoration.com we operate on a budget that is dictated by my wife's tolerance for cars and parts littering the driveway, garage, basement, attic, and shed. That said, you can guess how low the budget is. We'll attempt to offset some of the cost by selling any extra parts. Here is a summary of expenses so far:
