You gotta start somewhere Dylan.
At least you are in the right trade to do that type of work in the future.
Just be the best apprentice body maker you can be, learn all the skills thoroughly....and go that extra mile.
This will ensure that you become o

its looks sweet and very different.
but im surprised they only have a 186 in it i thought that something like that would at least have a small V8 like a 304ci. but its not meant for speed or acceleration.

i think it's very well built, especially the detail like the factory style inner and outer trimmings, but i don't like the mags...something like white centre steelies + chrome rims/cap would be more in line with the classic wedding look. :O

The idea of a V6 or V8 came up, but there were reasons and issues to consider. More weight, more time, more engineering, steering box removal required (engineer stipulated power steering) most of all more cost. It may have cost a packet in pizza to build,

I also noticed the current issue of Australian Street Rodding, in the tech Q&A section, talks about power steering & chassis mod strength, and uses the EHLIMO as an example.

We didn't win any judged trophies, but got Brock's choice of the day. That was a good feeling to know he noticed it.

There were a lot of nice cars that day and a casual day too.
