Some people get to the point in the build where they cannot bring themselves to drill holes into the body for fear of making a mistake.

The partially assembled kit I picked up looked that way.

Good point! Especially if you ask 10 people and get 15 opinions. You do not have the confidence during the first build to do what you want (and not what others want!).

It gets easier building the second one..

I'm actually on my third and find it's the most difficult. But I think that's because each one becomes more involved as you make changes you didn't do before.

Hi Larry!

Also true! I wanted more and more originality when building my later cars and ended up welding my own chassis and control arms, as well as getting uprights cast.

That does take longer...

It's like when you see a supermodel, and think. I would like one of those, and then find out the expense on maintenance, and on going expense.
