    *Man, if someone came to me from another state with the parts I really needed for a built and stayed some time fitting them. Then he would get some more from me than just a shout out!* I mean, I just would have no time going to a guy in other states with hard to get parts spending the rest of the day wrenching. He is an awesome car guy for sure. I hope you paid him some strong money otherwise he earns you a big favor man...

    SRX turned out good. That OEM grille looks way better on there. Civic looks really good, especially considering how bad the damage was that he described. After a hit like that you really shouldn't expect to get perfect panel gaps, and for the money he said he's got in it who cares. It'd be a great car to just drive, and should last a long time.

  • @jgott1745
    @jgott1745 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Keep it for the winter!! It’s your best option money wise for a car!! You’ll still be able to sell it for a huge profit in the spring or summer after getting use out of it.

  • @16blank45
    @16blank45 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    The cADDY is sweet! I love how the hood (we call it bonnet) just sits so well and that fender almost looks like it was born with the car. That bumper was just perfect. Even a second look wouldn’t reveal that this was a rebuild.
    I still can’t believe that this car only cost you net $265!! Clean up those headlights with some 600 grade sandpaper and water, then use a clearcoat spray on them. It makes them look so new.
