    l was looking back over the build thread l did on my truck and it is really interesting to me what the idea and vision was when the truck started. the changes and decisions made during construction are interesting to me.

    from the idea in my head to reality and in the way some things l changed were drastic, some subtle, but worked out good.


    what's the story on your'e rod, mind change or vision change, and how many have had this experience :confused:

    Later :cool:

    I think all of us start out with a firm idea in mind of what the finished car will look like, but along the way we make adjustments. It could be because some parts become available that change our direction, or the car starts talking to us and tells us how it wants to be done. That is what happens to me most times, I start looking at the car and see that it could be more than I originally thought if I only did certain things differently. Sometimes other people give you input and suggestions that make sense and you incorporate those into the build.

    If I look back on all the build threads I have done I usually start out saying my plans for the car, but the end result usually ends up much different.:eek:
