Looking for advice. Want to build a Duster to run on a budget.

A guy once asked me if I could not afford to make my Dart one color, in a snobbish tone. I simply said, I decided to replace the bent up wrecked fender and the rusted out trunk lid, yea they did not match the rest of the car, but I first priority was to spending more time and $ on it was to make it safe and put on the road, where it was intended. He just gave me this ***** look. Screw him! :BangHead:
