jd_perspective · 01-22-2018, 09:29 AM

looks great for sure! but the rational side of me wants to know why you put so much money into a wrecked (possibly even totaled) car?

I only see a couple K in parts there. That's not that much. Plus we don't know what he paid for the car it's self. And if the interior is in good shape it was probably worth it.

Plus what does its being totaled matter? So it's cheaper to insure due to the car not being covered in an accident for being a salvaged title. As long as he's not planing on wrapping it around a tree.

I had no idea what to expect when I read your list of parts, but you did a great job turning a wrecked car into a real head turner!
