    Something like that green one I would expect to cost somewhere around the $70k mark at a guess to have built. Maybe half that if you did all the work yourself.

    Also something to note, once you have the bulkhead, wings, front panel, bonnet, seat base etc in the correct place on your RR chassis to suit the front wheels/axle position, you then have two choices for the rear end. The first is extensive work to a 109 LWB rear tub, shortening the front of it to allow correct positioning of the arch over the rear axle/wheels... and then you have to shorten the overhang of the tub so it looks right. Leave it as and it'll look out of proportion, shorten it too much and it'll look too dumpy!
    The second is to use a tray (As Mick has done on his), which saves a huge amount of work.....

    Setup.

    Here's a pic of the initial setup.. Your final wheel choice is something you actually need early in the proceedings! This helps with the setup!!

    A finished product..

    Here's a pic of a very nicely finished vehicle.. The only thing I'd change is the rear overhang... 100/150mm too much IMO..

    And another...

    Here's another that's been well done... I have a feeling this one is using a lengthened 90 chassis or shortened 110 chassis as it just looks right! Arch spacings are spot on!

    To give you some ideas/inspiration look up Land Rover 100" Hybrid on Google Images....
