Getting parts for most else, even that '59 Chevy, is expensive, and very time consuming)
Like most hobbies this is very true. If you don't do most of the work yourself it's even more expensive. I actually did most of the body work and helped paint it. Lol I'll never do that again, blew paint out my nose for 2 days. Not like using an airbrush on some of my custom engines.
