Powdercoating and bonding the chassis option?
I was planning to order my kit w/o the powdercoating and bonding option since working on the car and assembly is part of the attraction for me. I did a frame off restoration of a 66 Corvette in my garage - complete with sandblasting in the driveway, turning the garage into a body shop and paint booth and upholstering the seats in the living room - so work doesn't scare me. Also the possibility of saving a few bucks to spend elsewhere is not unattractive.
But, in scanning over all the threads in this forum I see almost 100% recommendation to get the chassis coated and bonding done by ERA. Has anyone here actually painted their own chasis and bonded the body, and if so, was it that difficult to do? Is it a mistake to do this yourself>
Thanks
Dan
