Response
I appreciate all of the responses. You guys sound like a good crew. I figure I have about 8 months to research the one I want before I put down the cash, so I will probably be asking a lot of questions. I guess that is what this board is for.
I would like to keep the project to around $35,000. I already have a 500HP motor to drop in, so that number excludes the motor. I will also be doing the body work and paint myself, as I used to make a living at it. Rough fabrication with pipe, tubing, and a mig welder I can handle. Aluminum and tig welding I will have a buddy take care of.
I can see that the final decision will be a hard one, as I have seen only two mfr's and I liked them both a lot. I do not want a roller so I need to research other mfrs that offer "kits". Are there any events I should plan to attend before next spring in order to meet some of you guys and sit in your cars? Let me know.
