    Don't read anything into what I said above. I still do all my own work with the exception of upholstery. What I'm saying is that the prices of the materials used is starting to hurt a bit more then I believe it should. These prices I stated far exceed the cost of living index (which IMO is a government lie). I should have also stated that we 'ain't seen nothin' yet'. Just wait until the Cap and Trade plus the Health Care increases get added to the cost/price economic spiral.

    Sorry if I wandered into a bit of the forbidden subject here of politics, but that WILL be a fact of life and will affect the costs of our car hobby....or businesses in some cases.

    I follow you, no worries. With all these new "helpful" programs we will have the costs on our hobbies increased 3 fold, you pay for yours, and 2 more except the other two are handed out for free to someone "underpriveledged"...
    If you can't stand behind our troops, feel free to stand in front of them!
