Steel is on the way. After a late-night discussion about the Tumbler likely costing $50k-$60k, I've been told by the other manager (my wife) to cut that number down a bit.

I have a feeling that I won't be getting those AP Racing calipers.

Did you tell your manager about the potential money or possible endorsement the finished car would bring? :mrgreen:

LOL... Well, you could always keep that figure of a build cost, but work around the "manager" in a smarter way... :lol:

lol I don't think my kids would ever let it out of the family, so she won't believe that one.

Maybe an endorsement....I could get Menards as a sponsor since I live in their hometown. They have a race team, it should fit right in.

I will start with the cheap/used stuff. Then swap in the expensive stuff when I get all my endorsement deals. :D

Funny you call your wife “manager”.

In Korea, the term we use is “Minister the Internal Affairs”. :lol:

On wooden panel just like that? Ain’t that potential fire hazard? Do you just want to see the world burn? :mrgreen:

It's regular drywall, but a wood wall would also be fine. Hopefully the manufacturers know what they're talking about, or maybe they're the ones that just want to see the world burn?

I am surprised that it's taking me so long to clear out space in the garage. It would be nice if I could get the butler to do it :D

Your manager doesn’t help out? What about her kids?
