The whole project is very daunting and time consuming. But if you dissect the whole thing into small steps and focus on those smaller tasks, you make a lot of progress. The whole project is written in chalk, because you don't know what obstacles are going to arise until you realize what does or does not work for whatever reason. I've learned, as this is my 3rd body swap, to keep an open mind and sometimes you have to step back and pivot.

As frustrating as the challenges are sometimes, I enjoy figuring things out and taking things that don't necessarily belong together and making them look like they were intended to exist the whole time.

Facebook has a group dedicated to body swaps, and I'm so impressed with the vision and abilities of other people. From simple rat rod swaps to factory looking swaps that look like gm and Ford and dodge designed and built them. Plus the cross pollination of BMW chassis swaps under 58 Detroit steel and things that blow my mind. That page gets me excited to try new things
