1. Buy a spare chassis, you can get good ones for 2K with a body
2. Used front and rears are plentiful. Check the front axles closely for cracks, the rear, put in new bearings and again make sure the axle is not bent. Your a racer, those items are easy to detect. 125.00 to 1500.00
3. Steering gears, 500 to 750
4. Your biggest cost will be the motor. That cost will depend on what you can do. I'd look for one that needs rebuilt, and go from there and budget your rebuilding costs.
I listed some used items here. There is a point where you should never by used. From the front to back.
Spindles
Radius rods, build new ones with new rod ends,
Steering arms off the gear and spindle
Motor plates
Seat w/belts
Any Torsion bar components
Birdcage
Wheels
Seems like a lot, but, most have no clue what a tiny Crack in components will cost you in the long run. You get upside down, and you will eventually, by parts failure or other factors how expensive it is to replace shit.
Good Luck, Hope you get the chance to get out there.
