    I always tought most peole wanted to take credit for building their cars, not paying too have a car built for you.
    It has nothing too do with money, just satisfaction of knowing you built it yourself!! Guess it easy to run low 10s when you have a shop built car! Oh well enjoy spending that money!

    No offense taken at all! I travel quite a bit and never would have the time to get the car where it's currently at. Not to mention the space and tools. Also, Dave/Dan Buschur and crew are good friends of mine. I have been burnt SO bad in the past with SH!T shops that I would rather spend the extra $ to be assured it's done right the first time.

    Would I be happier if I did all the work myself?...eh, probably more proud. But I did work hard for the money that has been spent on creating it... so I agree with you in saying that it's all in the eye of the beholder

    FWIW: The car only has a clutch issue. Everything else is working spot on.
