I don't take before pictures. I prefer my after pictures.
Viewing my before pictures, I fear, would cause me to suffer from a form of PTSD.
I have built some trucks which make me smile to look at. I don't really want the grim reminders of what it took to get to the finished product.
However, I have been to car shows where guys would have a huge binder full of pictures of their journey which included nightmarish conditions, but appreciated what they accomplished to bring a pile of trash all the way to an absolute gem, but that was their nightmare not mine, which is quite different.
Having said all of this, I look forward to see what everyone else shares about their journey in this thread.
