took the words out of my mouth. If you know what is in the built car when you get it and how the previous owner took care of it then its a no brainer to go this route then the build and lose your ass in the long run idea. But yea building a car is much more fun in the end but i'd only go that route nowadays if I have a unlimited income to toss around on cars. That way I wouldn't feel like I got my angus plowed if I ever decided to sell it.
