wbrowne thanks for the response. I don't think my or olememphis replys were directed at your response. But maybe my first post was misread by a few others. I do all my own work on my restorations from the mechanical to the body work and paint. Why, because I like to learn new things and save money. There has been a lot of things I have learned and still learning doing the restorations. And one of the biggest lessons I have learned is basically what dale937 stated in his post. And that is you don't have to be a rocket scientist to do a auto restoration anyone can it's no special skill. I know a fella who dropped out of school in the 6th grade that can't read who is one heck of a body and paint man. I have met a lot of folks who were getting parts from me for thier restorations who hired out the work they had done on thier trucks. The reason being that they didn't think they could do thier own work. But once they seen how it was done they started doing it. So I figure if I see something on the net that may help someone out, I'm going to post it. After all isn't this what this forum is suppose to be about?
