If you want a realiable and good conversion, about £1500 - £2000 other wise it will only have problems. So rebuild it or find one that has genuinely been rebuilt. Then get someone that know what there doing so they don't leave you with heaping wires and that all over the place

All in, mine is costing me around £700, thats includes buying everything including the car

If your willing to wait for the parts to be offered cheaply, and are willing to do the work yourself, you can reduce the cost by alot
