67/68/69 cuda dilemma
My 13 year old daughter watched days of thunder with my wife and I, and said why cant you build a car as fast as they can. I laughed and said restoring a 50 year old car is a lot harder than building a race car. You have to undo 50 years of neglect and rust issues, find the parts, and of course I work 40 hours a week, and dont mess with it in the summer when its 100° out. Only mess with it on the weekends mostly 1 day a week, if that. I told her if this was my full time job 40 hours a week, had all the parts, and an unlimited income, I could have this done and driving in about 6 months. Plus days of thunder is a movie, so all the movie magic. Plus racing teams typically have multiple people employed building racing cars each with a specific specialty like engine building, or chassis fab, or body and paint, and that is all they do. Kids. Insert eyeroll here.
