Good God, Part 5 is a real rollercoaster!

I admire your attitude about the setbacks, a lot to be learned from the amazing build, but even more from your perseverance...

X2! Could not have said it better.

Maintaining the positive attitude after each set-back is inspiring so 'Thank You' for that. I'm sure I'm not the only guy who was picked-up by some of your comments.

Wow...sad story. Glad everything is going to work out for you and be ok. As a firefighter, I definitely know how bad this could've been. GOD is merciful...

Glad to see everything was ok for the most part and no one was injured. It could of been much worse. If you do not have them, grab some flame retardant blankets. As a welder I use those religiously. Even grinding sparks can set something a blaze real quick.

I admire your adversity and will continue to watch your build. Keep your head up like you have done.

I am so sorry this happened and it is truly heartbreaking.

I can also see you are one hell of a fighter and I am so glad you are finishing the car and recovering from yet another hip surgery.

I couldn't have said it better. It was pretty much what I was thinking. You are a trooper and your positive attitude is inspiring.

I can't wait to see your skills and the progress on your build!

Where did you get those wheels to roll around in the shop?

Sorry to hear about the fire.
