Re: my 80 build

Re: my 80 build

Don't sell it. Get it together and drive it. You have too much time and money in to it and will not get half of what you have in it.

Re: my 80 build

its a work of art. sometimes you have to take a break from it to appreciate what you are building then go back later with a fresh clear mind.
