i guess its probably that its not very common to see high schoolers with the money to do the stuff to cars that you have done (i.e. B18 swaps). most people that have done a swap are at least out of high school and working full time

I didnt think you would be painting the car purple, I was just trying to think of another color that will go with purple. And just curious, how does someone who is 18 go about owning a company?

its all in making a few larger purchases like from password..... he gets a better price on larger orders. the rest is just some paper work with the state. hell my dad and brother and me had a business, "brummett and sons corvette sales and service" we even had business cards brother just flaked out completely and my dads to old now to really do any work. and only so much i can do or want to do myself. so that is no longer a business. more or less just a hobby.

good luck with the business and build

did you buy the donor car or just the motor? j/w i have thought about doing a motor swap but only if i get dam lucky at my local pullapart, because of the price id pay for it.
