    I'm one the guys that bought a finished car, for a lot of reasons, the two biggest being that I don't have enough skills to do the majority of the work, and even if I were to start one now, I'd likely be in the next world before it was finished. I won't go into the other many reasons. However, I wanted something that I could now afford and could begin enjoying right away. I don't have big bucks or I would have spent $50k more. I have done the rod shows for many years, small locals to the Association events, always dreaming of one day having my own. I'm as tickled as a little kid on Christmas. I like all the rods in all the classes, and have met a ton of great folks. My car is glass, and I have been the recipient of a couple (that I heard anyway) of snide remarks about it being a toy instead of a real rod, because it wasn't steel. Bothered me for awhile, but I'm over it, have thick skin, and just blow it off now. I'm still envious of you that can do your own, and appreciate that you are willing to share your knowledge. Sorry......didn't mean to ramble on so long!

    Leo Life is not measured by the breaths you take, but by the RODS that take your breath away.
