While I agree with everything above, unless there is another depression and I somehow become very wealthy and hold onto my money during said depression, there ain't no way I am going to be able to afford the real thing. (Unless there is one in the thousands of barns here in Berks County but SAAC started down the road from me, so I guess thats out the window.)

However, if and when I finish this car, I will have the next best thing to a real one. The scratch built route works for me as I can pay as I go.

On another note, I just ordered a bunch of stuff from AMP and I'll post it when I receive it.
