THIS is how to build a custom car
« on: January 22, 2010, 12:26:45 PM »
If you have some free time, browse through this dudes thread:

Amazing work and attention to detail. Everything has been done in his garage - from building frame to paint. Dude is even polishing bolt heads by hand. Its also his first hot rod build :o







The best part is, its a driver and he said he can't wait to finish it so he can beat the hell out of it on the road ;D

Hell yea! I hate to see those show cars that you know never see the road. We've a got a 67 Mustang, and a 66 Chevrolet C10 Stepside that are clean, but see road time as well. Heck, the 66 has been in family since new and both me and my dad learned to drive in it. I drove it my entire junior year of HS. Props to this guy for building something and using it  {toast}
