Chop Cut Rebuild Spin-off

Dan. I met you at the mopar nats this year, you were walking across the tent to go sign autographs and talk to a long line of people, I managed to catch you before you got to all of them and had you sign my little book right next to Mr Norms name. It was pleasure to meet you. But if you want to keep this as a "real" garage for the average person. Then just look thru all the threads here. From the simplest of how do you get the latch assembly off of the glove compartment door, to what have I got myself into. I think using Harbor Freight is a great idea. Everyone knows there's Snap-on, Mac, Blueline, Craftsman.. etc, in the realm of tools but, truth is those of us who have them also know if you want to "customize a tool" you use one of Harbor Freights before you'll use one of the well known ones. Throwing in the social aspect of having friends/buddies over to help is a great idea, sometimes very little gets accomplished, other times its a comedy because everyone is just having fun at what they like doing, but the wealth of knowledge some of them give is worth listening too more than just turning a wrench. Look at some of the threads in here on what some people have fab'd up in their own garage with ordinary tools, truly amazing.. Just some thoughts....for you. You'll appeal to more when you keep it at the level of here's what I got, this is all I can afford, and I ain't got a clue how to do it, but I'm gonna do it anyways with what I have. In the realm of endless funds/open checkbooks we all know the end result will usually be better than what the car was after it rolled off the assembly line, and about that time here comes the commercial to yank us all back to reality, because we realize I can't afford that.. I've said all this to say keep it simple, make it fun, show the frustrations, keep it lighthearted, don't show us a part then go to a commercial and when you get back, the engine has been fully assembled, headers are on and the engine is running and some one is tooling down the road saying "wasn't that easy"! So I'm looking forward to your "new adventure" and wish you the best..
