The Build Tally
Even though Jonathan Hoffman's truck had some mods done to it before the contest, he ended up rebuilding everything for the challenge. After his entry to the Low-Buck Challenge, the interior was redone, along with a few other final touches. So, minus those details and the sponsorship of a brake kit from SSBC, the total was $5,752.73. But, just in case you don't believe us, here is a tally of the parts.
