Yep -- I hear ya!

Chasing so many other little stupid things... and it's mostly just been on and off the trailer. But when I actually drove it - something just wasn't kosher... I just had to figure out what it was.

These are the kinds of "DETAILS" that kill me on a high dollar professionally built hot rod....


Could we just match the screw heads? Amazingly sloppy work... just amazing.

A flat head wood screw? WTF? Why would they even HAVE one of those to mis-use?

COME ON! I mean, we're talking about a ''prefoessional'' restoring team, they are more than prepared and all that stuff, I don't know, I'm not trusting the quality of the work done there.
