<VV> Making necessary repairs.

[Matt Nall]

My point is that if I'm going to do something like this, I'd never do it 
half-a$$ed! That negates the whole concept of restoring something, to my mind. 
Am I in my right mind? No, probably not! I'll have ten times as much invested in 
this car than I'll ever recover; but I knew that going in and still decided it 
was something I wanted to do. Do I expect everybody else to be such a purist? 
Certainly not, but to boast about how cheaply you've done something also doesn't 
seem right to me.

If you are not a true mechanic that can reliably  access the condition of parts.. then going all new is the correct way.
If you've only driven NEW / Newer cars most of your life... then that's the only way to be comfortable!




Many  are "really "re-living" their youthful days....  cars with patina....safe..but not perfect....


 Please do not confuse   owners with little or no spare $$$  for with  those that just aren't caught up in "look at me", or "cruising".


Especially in these rough economic times....we need  to help those unable to help themselves..


One forum I frequent even has a "pay it forward"  topic....where some even pay the shipping!


This, of course is mainly on "safety items"
