Initially I thought the best part of this hobby would be when I finally got my first hot rod on the road. But I was wrong.
I later learned that the build was a lot more fun than expected so perhaps the road wasn't best part part. But again, I was mistaken.
Then I learned that turning a wrench with the wonderful people I meet in this hobby who become friends is without a doubt the best part of this hobby, even if it is just putting on a license plate.
