my piont wasnot the super shop with 20 guys working there. i'm talking about the home builder. the one man, one car, one time guys.trust me i like thier work and, they are so nice that they usually end up sitting, all the time, cause if you get the first rain on it, it will melt or something. or it is way too radical to drive with any kind of frequency. in my estimation the home restorer/fixer upper guys have to use thier immagination.JMHO

I can appreciate where you're coming from but I have to disagree and say you're wrong. Guys in the garage often use their imagination but guys in the shop do it WAY more. And if you closely followed some of the big builds, you would see that now days, more often than not, they are getting the snot driven out of them. On top of it, you specifically referred to Mopar guys and "especially A body guys". Again, not to disrespect anybody on this board, or any other for that matter, because there are some great builds on here, but for the most part the Mopar guys are often the least imaginative, from my perspective of the builds I follow. And I follow multiple builds on multiple sites, all makes, small shops, big shops, home builts, etc. Part of the reason I went the direction I did on mine was being tired of seeing nothing but street/strip Mopars. They're a dime a dozen and I wanted to be different. Now if you are referring to parts availability, I'll cut some slack on that one because there aren't a dozen options for front/rear subframes with the latest and greatest in factory suspension components available from the local dealer (i.e. C6 with DSE, RS, Jakes, Speedtech, etc, etc). In that respect we do have to be a bit more creative at times, but that creativity runs few and far between from what I've seen. Again, no disrespect to the creative and out there builds happening on this site and other Mopar sites, but I wouldn't go so far as to say "yhese kinds of things and attention to detail are what i find sets the mopar especially A body guys apart from every other bunch of enthusiasts."

Sorry for the jack 76OW. Back to your fabbing man!
