I understand. But I did a full frame off restoration of an old, rode hard 427 Corvette years ago - so fiberglass bonding agent, bucking soft aluminum rivets, fixing loose bonding strips, replacing body panels, and resin and glass mat work are nothing new and just part of old cars. Besides, this is really easy with all nice, new, pre-fitted clean parts. No rusted fastners, no warped frames, no broken fiberglass, no multiple layers of paint over 30 years to strip. Piece of cake compared to that so far.
Thanks
