Thanks just trying to build a fun driver.
I've never owned "car show nice" rides. They've always been fun/cool drivers. The Patina trend just helps up the status. Once the trend ends, I'll still be building budget drivers that peers will turn their necks for. The only one I ever planned to paint (& attempt to make really nice) is my RetroRod. It was perfect patina back in the late 80's until it was stolen & hacked up. It will get decent paint.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
