Why is it that people refuse to listen to reason?
Everything that Bondo, Texan and I have said rings true.
Please, for the sake of this box, listen to us.
Case in point: My friend has a 1974 VW Sunbug that I helped him "restore." He decided he didn't want to fully restore it as he didn't have the money, so the money he did have he put into just getting it driving. (We did replace the floorpans, but that doesn't count because they were so rusted you could put your foot through them if you werent careful.) All we did was get the engine running, brakes, change transmission fluid, new tires, and a few small things. Now hes got a half-paint, half-primer car, that has rust spots in several places on the body, obvious fiber-glass patches, a bare interior, and it only runs about two months before it breaks down again. He has had this car for eight years, and its been on the road for two. Its not like this was his only car, he did have a slowbird just like Texans, but he sold it to get money for the Bug. He has also had four motorcycles since the purchase of the Bug.
Please listen to us, don't end up like my friend.
Do this the right way.
