Super car. Lots of changes you don't notice until he explains them.

Must of cost many thousands of hours and quite a few dollars. Panels beaters must make more in California? I honestly don't know how a 25 year old here would nearly afford the base car or any of the parts?

The base car did look pretty ropey to be fair :)

Finding one in that state at the right price can be challenging enough in the U.K., possibly more selection in the states?

He’s obviously talented and a car in the state the donor was isn’t going to be much in the US probably $10,000 his man hours are free plus Emory probably helped with the steel and the donor engine and great publicity for him.
