I just seen your video, and subscribed immediately ! I always wanted to have a general lee, even tried to buy a few and couldn't afford 100k for it. But now i believe i could budget build one like you have, you have inspired me. Not counting the ford/mercury car, how much for the body and how many hands on hours in your build ?

I'm 33 now and I bought and started working on my first classic at 16. You have done a great job with creating another 69 charger and you should be extremely proud of your car and drive the wheels off it! I also did a body swap with a Studebaker onto a Dakota just like you have done and it's more intimidating than hard. Like you said almost anyone can build a car like this, just take the time and enjoy the project! Keep in mind that the hardest part of a build like this in only in your mind lol!
