Actually, NAME's journal, the Exhibitionist, ran a short article on exhibit
costs in the Spring 2002 issue.  Prices were quoted on a square-foot basis.
 Estimates ranged widely, as different types of exhibits have different
needs.  (Interactives and AV add to costs.)

It's hard to do a top-notch artifact-based exhibit for under $200-$250 per
square foot.  You're planning to save money by reusing the furniture, but
you'll turn around and spend it on the AV.

The issue of the Exhibitionist can be ordered at www.n-a-m-e.org.
