Itoldyouso-I understand everything your saying. The only car that was just flat out given to me is the 48. Sure my parents helped me out, but I paid $330 of the $1000 on the Trans Am and $1000 of the $5,600 on the Vette. I worked hard for the cars I have. And you're right I didn't really "rebuild them". On the Trans Am I did some body work. The Vette hasn't needed anything that required anyone to be too skilled. I have a while to think about the engine choose. I have access to everything I would need, to do body work or anything else that needs to be done. My Grandpa is a dumptruck driver, so he has pretty much every tool known to man. I'm not in any rush with the car. It's just something I was given and it gives me something to do when I'm at his house. It may be up to two years before the body work is done. Like I said I'm only 15 and have alot to learn from you guys and my Grandpa. My Uncle also rebuilds cars. Not quite as old, but he does everything. Right down to painting them. He mainly rebuilds cars from the late 60's to the early 70's. He is going to paint my Vette this summer.
