Default Advice for newbie on Vanagon repair costs


Hi all,

I'm considering restoring a 1981 Vanagon. I think I found one that
needs a new engine, exhaust system and brakes. Is there any way to
ball park these costs? I'm trying to determine if I can afford to take
on this endeavor. Thanks for any input!

restoring, whatever you think it's going to cost then take that times 3 or
5!
