I've stopped building project cars because the cost is super high, parts are hard to find and most important, a LOT of reproduction parts are useless garbage.
I just got sick of paying top dollar and waiting for weeks for parts that were total garbage when they showed up. I'd say that roughly 90% of the reproduction stuff made in China is garbage. On my last project I threw a lot of parts straight in the trash rather than even trying to put it on the car.
I have shelves and shelves of 'new parts' that are not usable that have accumulated over the last 20 years or so. Between the lack of (quality) parts, lack of solid cars worthy of the time and money, and (dare I say it?) my age, I don't guess there are any more projects in my future either.
Now I have to figure out what to do with this stash of parts. The Cuda shouldn't be a problem when it's time comes.
