Being a "Beast" owner myself, I have been at it for 2+ years. I hope to go to paint in February. It's been a "long road" for sure, but I'm almost done.
I have "networked" with every CMC or SB owner I have ran across. One thing I have learned: If ONE has a problem, they ALL have the same problem.
It's "how you solve the problem", that makes the difference. Some of my "20/20 hindsite" came long after I had a solution. Somebody else did it "easier" or "quicker", but I still "got 'er done".
When finished, mine will be as good as anybody's. I'm building a SEMA show car on a Taco Bell budget. Actually, the budget was blown long ago, but I'm "still truckin'".
Club Cobra and its members have given a lot of advice and encouragement for over two years. There are several CMC or Beast owners on here: be proud of it!
