    touring the shops

     



    Funny how you mention Rednecks, I am picking up my 33 cabster from them labor day weekend (they are real good to work with), with a Pete & Jakes chassis, of course my wife was wondering why we were waiting until then to pick it up until she found out that Good-Guys are having a show in Kansas City that weekend also

    But think about what YOU want, not the flavor of the week that is on TV, and how much you want to drive it.

    Welcome to the forum. That's good advice eticket gave you. Find something that really turns you on and do that car. It is also not a bad idea to buy someone elses car the first time around and gain some experience making it yours. Lots easier than starting from scratch........believe me! Usually lots cheaper too.

    Thank you all for your advice. I have already contacted Rednecks, and they are sending a catalog. I plan to make a trip up there soon just to see their shop, etc. Should be fun.

    I kinda guessed that buying existing from someone else is wise, and saves money. I'll go to as many shows as possible to help me learn, plus this forum.

    Concerning those TV shows, I just find them entertaining, but I wouldn't think too seriously about any of their cars, if for no reason other than I couldn't afford 'em!!

    At least I got the wife primed on the idea last night, as I nervously showed her the Rednecks web page. She was receptive, so I hurdled the first barrier!
