some things you just have to figure out for yourself welcome back into the light ..

I like the some of the ideas of what they're doing, like staying away from new parts and fabricating and refurbishing what you need. But I've been working on this one I'm building for about two months now and it's a lot of work to do this and make it look decent, even though it's not a ton of money. How can you spend weeks and weeks getting these old truck cabs or car bodies to fit the frame you're using and not at least want to shoot a decent coat of primer on it? When I build something, I like to know it's going to be around for a long time, no matter who ends up with it.
