Wayne, that doesn't surprise me the least. Most folks don't realize both the time and expense that may be associated in building a car, much less maintaining it afterward. I restored a '70 Camaro Z-28 back in the mid 80's and the cost was easily TWICE what I had carefully budgeted. Darn near almost cost me my marriage finishing that beast.

I believe anyone that wants to learn whether or not a particular kit or replica is good for them will garner more than enough advice (and opinions) from this web site. A survey is only going to assemble more subjectivity within a nice wrapper and bow. IMHO, of course, and we all have them.

Most of us here will be brutally honest with our experiences. We'll brag and bash (if it's truly warranted).
