This car took me nearly 2 1/2 years to build to where i could drive it and i am still working on it. I worked on it myself in my dad's body shop, though i did have some help from my dad and Adamo. It was a great learning experience. This is how i spent my summers and time after school rather than getting in trouble. So far, i have put over $15,000 into it. That really only includes the wheels, tires, interior, motor, trans, driveline & other parts. The shop covered all the materials including the paint. I did all the labor.
