    Cody, I think Aaron (Nerdracing) was joking with you! If you have a thin skin, think about thickening it up! Ha!

    As for tools, parts, etc., you do what you can when you can. In 2004, I moved from a condo to a house with garage so I could work on my cars.

    Right now, my Aquamutt build is a bit stalled by the cold and snow! Hoping to get the engine in Saturday. (I just went out to take two pics I'll add to my thread. Brrrrr!!)

    BTW, you could see about cutting off part of your old front bumper and adding it to your current one. I think someone has done that before. It would be a lot like Sasquatch's lip. You'd have to cut the bottom straight, though.

        jeesh man... easy on the flaming, just trying to show that being 16 does not mean you can't do some custom work.

        Sorry to hear about the car, but glad you are ok.

        Its never too late, or too early, to start working on vehicles.
