length of a piece of string??

You might want to do a search, add some more info as to what you want to do, what engine, do you want it legal or is it for off road only, engineered or dodgy, do you want drive in/drive out? How much can you do yourself? What parts do you have? Are you using new parts or used? What parts are they?

The answer to your question is somewhere between 5k and 50k.

Fyffy try actually asking with some details perhaps...

Which state are you in? It won't happen legally in Qld, and given recent changes, most likely it's a no go in Vic now too.

You can buy complete off the shelf conversion kits from the USA, but some mods are then needed to suit out rhd set up which will cost extra.

Doing it yourself, or drive in drive out?

Chevrolet or ford or Chrysler? A lot of differences in prices of engines and conversions to suit.

Too many questions in your question.

Sorry guys not sure on the engine I was just thinking rough price would like it legal I live in Vic what are the problems with the government in Vic rules wise. Just reali checking the prices would be a futur option would prob improve the fuel acconamy. Might be better just building an off road only truck tho
