I can’t seem to find any solid info on how much it would really cost to put a 70s front clip on an 80s body it’s not a project I could do myself and I would most likely be getting reproduction parts to do it does anyone have experience with having a body shop doing it instead of it being a diy job?

I’ve been looking high and low for years the 80s body style are everywhere can’t seem to find me a good 76-79 that isn’t completely rotted or 30k+ I just want a sweet daily I can gradually put love into not a for parts truck or an expensive garage queen (would a front clip swap just be the way to go? they get pricey when you don’t know a handy man who could do it and have zero experience with a project that big)
