nice work on the repairs too

Thanks! I like this idea, which Camaro wheels are you refering to?

Thanks! I really like the idea of the York, from what I was told their output is really good and much quieter than electric ones, and since I'll have a 11g tank on board I can use it for more than just the bags.

Thanks, Not gonna lie it took me a while to get my confidence where it is haha. I spent a lot of time reading and watching videos to get my head around what I was taking on, and yet that still didn't prepare me enough.

I'm still nervous about welding in the outer panels but I feel like, if I take my time it should go well.
