Overbuilding Makes it Awesomer
Cameraman Brian and I were talking about the Fairmont build on our way back from the hardware store one day and we came up with the phrase “Overbuilding Makes it Awesomer”.
It’s really a metaphor for the mentality you get when building your dream car. You think to yourself, if I spend more money on better parts, it’ll make the finished product that much better!
Thing is, it doesn’t always work that way. Sometimes spending more money is just a waste. Sometimes it’s a sound investment, but making that determination can be difficult. Hence the reason I think most of us err on the side of caution and buy the good stuff till the credit cards are maxed out.
What are your experiences with project vehicles? Do you see this mentality? If so, please elaborate.
Thanks for watching!
