Not Ranked
I bought an unfinished E-M kit. Its been in the works now for about 2 yrs...I have about a year to go. I pay cash for mine and try really hard to not take anything out of my day job pay. My brother and uncle both own garage door companys. If I go work for them during the weekend it pays about 100.00 a day. If you look around town and out on the back roads...scrap metal is everywhere. Scrap steel is bringing about .08 per lb. or 160.00 a ton....its not hard to find a ton of scrap steel. I do just about anything. i am blessed that I have a good job and am salary payed. If i take a day off to do some side work i still get paid...you have to weigh that in as well. Dont take a day off to go make 60 bucks when youll make more than that at work.
I also do everything myself. With the exception of some of the peices i have made by the water jet guy...i make most of my own stuff. I do my own body work...my own chassis work...everything. The parts you need are only a small...very small percentage of what you will spend on a car. If I had to pay the labor for someone else to do it...I couldnt afford it.
Pay as you go...when its done its done.
