    Numbers Matching

    Never cared about matching numbers. Just not something that was important to me. I do cars for fun and enjoyment, not re-sale. That said, my 1968 Hemi RR WAS numbers matching, because I ordered it, and bought it new. lol ... It was my first NEW car, with my father's help. I was 18 years old.

    Lawnmower wheels replaced cheap!

    Flymo... I've seen them used at Disney World, and Universal Studios in Florida. Mostly on hillsides. The users were swinging them slowly from side to side cutting in a 180 degree semi circle about 8 feet wide over all.

    Welding helmet

    First, have you checked or replaced the battery recently? Secondly, How much is a replacement lens, vs. A new helmet. ...and I'm not talking about one from Harbor Freight, either.

    Harbor freight spray gun?

    I didn't say anything about any of that. All I said was, very simply, the old adage, "You get what you pay for" is most often, true. That's not a put down to anyone here, or anything. It's merely comment based on observation.

    Harbor freight spray gun?

    A fellow by the name of John Arbuckle once coined a phrase that went like this: "You get what you pay for". I've found that to be exquisitely true advice.

    Socket wrenches

    Craftsman tools are fine for what I do. I don't use them to make a living, and I can count on one hand the number of times I've had to replace one. I do have a set of Bonney tools, too. Far superior, made in America, and I've never broken one since I purchased them back in the late 1960's...

    Good Purchase, Rani. Be sure to use it safely. Don't forget venting, as well as flammables. Everything from gasoline fumes to spray can fumes. Like any tool, use it right, and be safe.
