Yes lots of pictures, can't have too many.

Cost of doing it?? Always more than you planned. I just got my Duster back from the
chassis shop and 8 point roll bar, back seat firewall, frame connectors and a "few"
other items I added along the way sent my bill up about $1000.00 over my original
estimate. Did I complain....NO, was I happy with the workmanship....YES!!!!!

Cheaper to buy a turn key car? Probably, but I bought a car that "ran", but had been
sitting for many years and needed lots of updating.....fuel system, brakes, the roll
bar just to name a few.

Did I have the $$$ to buy a true turn key race car....No. But the build is part of the fun.

Just my $0.02 cents.
