Maybe I missed it in my search, but what's a ballpark cost to have a 22 converted into a 20?

About the price of buying one already done. (once you have finished the rest of the rebuild)

I asked Brian Pankonin of Steve's Aircraft http://www.stevesaircraft.com/ this question. Here is his resonce:
Takes 50 hours min, 70 max. A good third or more of the time is in the repairing of the fabric all the way through color. Of course dad has done over 20 of them and
he can whack one out pretty fast. Add the cost of the parts out of the Univair catalog and you can get a good idea of total cost. Like Redbarron posted, you can buy one cheaper if you can find a good one but some people enjoy the building process.

I would also look at Eddie Trimmers STC on these conversions http://www.trimmeraviation.com/. It cost much less.
