yeah man I agree there's something about the blood, sweat, tears, cussing, beer drinking, hitting, all the emotions we experience with it that ties us to our cars one way or another.
With my build I'm learning along the way, I've always loved cars/trucks just like most men but never been too mechanically inclined in that area, I always try to fix it first before anyone else gets involved unless I just know I can't then I make a few phone calls. I must say though it's been a blast hard work and effort makes you always appreciate the things you do to them.
They both look sharp man! Absolutely beautiful cars!
