Paint is cheap, prep work and spraying is free when you do it yourself. I'm also not concerned about the value of this car at all. The only way I'll sell it is if someone offers a ridiculous amount unprovoked.
While I have tons of hours invested, I have very little money into the car and I intend to keep it that way.
It's always been Chevy powered. Just going with a stroker with a large amount more displacement rather than trying to stuff turbos in an already tight space.
love your car, cant wait to see it again in august
