Yours could be just as aggressive. The condition of the chassis is what makes the difference.</div>

<div>That's a very aggressive project you're undertaking. Here is what my 100 BN1 looked like when I got it.</div>

<div dir="auto">I am beginning to understand what a restorer friend of mine once told me. He said he could restore three BJ8 cars in the time it took to do a 100. Virtually no parts I have bought from the usual suspects for my BN2 are easy to install. Nothing
fits like it was made for the car. This morning I made an attempt to bolt up the two bump stop boxes over the rear axle. None of the holes in the part lined up with the holes in the body above the rear axle. I will have to auger out at least three of the
holes in the bump stop box to get all four bolts in. This car is fighting me every step of the way. I guess it's like my restorer friend who has since passed told me when he sold me that rolling frame with a few body panels on it, "Go ahead buy the car,
it will give you a reason to live". I am beginning to understand what he meant. Half the time I am pulling my hair out and inventing new curse words, but I go out to that garage everyday and try to accomplish something on the car, even if I end up beating
my head against the wall, I keep coming back. Rant over.
