it's easy to tell on this thread that most people have never done any major alterations to a car or any modification of any degree other than open a box and bolt a part on.
If wanting to be a up and coming you tube star this project will provide years of content.
I`ve done a somewhat similar out of the box build that took me a decade to finish, but my car was a rotted-gutted basket case. His car seems to be pretty solid which could knock his build time down to a few years, Mine is an old 50`s frame car so I didn`t have to rely on unibody strength, but I did fab up a complete custom frame.
It will be great experience for him as it was for me.
