ted dont buckle to the "pressure" do it like you want. i got caught up in all the peer pressure once. i"ve got buddys that i used to hang around would would say you need to do this or that and i'd listen but that was their thingthey built high dollar street rods. i knew in my heart thats not what i wanted.mine was gonna be a driver. they kept sayin "yeah you say that now ,but wait til you get it done" then my project took the big stall. finally after 8 yrs. of storage its back on track with a whole new vision.i've always been a primer kind of guy.i love it .and honestly those are the cars and trucks that draw me at the shows.so i know the heat your feelin but stick to your guns. and do what you really want.......dave
