They total these cars way too soon.
Look at the depreciation of them from when new.
Value of the resale price drops like a rock.
Only reason i can have such a car.
Let alone two two of em.
Best used car deal out there.

 

Exactly my thought !!1

 

My uncle has been doing bodywork for the last 50 years. I wanted to get an ALUMINIUM
stud welder and use the heat and pull method , but he insisted doing it old school.

 

Watch and learn a lost art.
Anyone doing it in his own shop, for any time, must do good work.
People used to take pride in their work.
You enjoyed looking at your work when your finished.
Race cars, & Land Rovers were about the only land vehicles made of aluminum back then.
Body men still used lead, instead of fiber glass body filler.
Holds up over time much better.
Truly a lost art.
