Dennie, Thanx for the Kudos
Matt, Yer funny - Can't even start to buy the parts for what you described.
Lotsa ways to cut corners on a build (which I suspect was done on both cars you showed)
I refuse to cut corners, it'll alway bite ya in the butt down the road.
Like puttin a band-aid on a heart attack.
Do it once and do it right, ya won't be satified if ya short change your self.
Case in point.
Had a customer (about 4 years ago who said he had a budget of 35 K, Built him his requested car.
6 months later he comes back and wants updates.
Add 10K.
Now he's got 45 in it.
Told him when he payed the bill, that if he would have done the updates on the original build it would of only cost around $6500.
His statement to me was " Guess I should have listened to you Don"
Seems most 1 st timers have it "set in stone" they know more than some one who's been doin it for 40 + years.
Good luck on your journey.
A couple more to wet yer whistle.
