If you come out of a body-off restoration under $30K, you're rocking it. I'd budget $3K for safety things (front end, steering box, shocks, bushings) at the high end, but I'd make sure that was done before a drop of paint went on!
Similar my truck, it had a CB on the cab. Like yours it's rust free. And yeah, I think it may hit 30K for everything. I remember thinking 16-18K. Ha!
