So don't say he doesn't know anything about building a car...he's smart. Buy/trade for something that's already done. Like 240's. You can do the work yourself and put 8-10 grand into it, but when you go to sale it you could only get 6 or 7. Seems like the smarter thing to do...
I know he did, he also built one inbetween the 240 and his GVR4 didnt he? a black car if i remember correctly.. anyhow my post here wasn't directed toward him until he turned a conversation about your car into a direct attack on me. I agree that sometimes it is better to buy a "finished" car then it is to buy one and build it. that goes out the window when you have your first problem and have to trace down someone else shotty wiring or poor installation of something. when you do it yourself (and i know not everyone can) you can skip alot of trouble shooting steps and get right into fixing it because you KNOW you car because YOU built it.
