I am not sure how many were actually built by the owners but most were rollers to start with. I agree with you about putting the time into the car and should have a better appreciation for the car but on the other hand, we now have to know how much knowledge the builder has in building a car.

From a Company's perspective they look at the home builder as a person reviewing a video tape and an instruction guide to build the car, if they do something wrong and cause a costly accident there is nothing they can really do but write the check. On the other hand if a commercial builder builds the car and something is mechanically wrong with it and causes the same accident they can go back and subrogate against this builder and error he made in the assembly.

Kind of a catch 22.

None of the claims we experienced were from any fault of a builder.
