Stainless steel screws to come out too?

I think hers are titanium. But no, there's 26 on them and 4 plates. All stay put.

its not burning a hole in my pocket but I have the money for sure. I just ordered a bunch of stuff for my duster.

This is why I work a lot of overtime is to be able to play car. It's a privilege but I work for it in an honest way so why not :)

I have done it before because I am not a flipper and I don't believe in flipping.

I don't see it as "losing" money either because entertainment costs. If someone wants to count "lost" money then you count drinking, seeing movies, paying money for cruises. There is nothing tangible left after those things. Paying 2K for a car and having years of fun and passing it on to someone else is hardly "losing" anything

On one hand, I want to warn you based on my experience and bad habits of having more than 1 project car. On the other, I know you and I are the same age. Lord willing, we'll have many years of car building ahead. But these cars in project shape are getting fewer and fewer.
If you can afford it and want it, I'd go for it. And I love the concept you described about it being a "waste of money". If I had a penny for every time I've heard that about my project cars, especially the polara, including by other car guys/gals, I'd have more money than Elon Musk. There's far worse ways to "waste money".
