Props for doing the work yourself, even if you're getting your dad's help that's still awesome.

I'm pretty envious cause I'm such a poor dorm bum and I'm trying to save up to get an Evo lol

good luck

Wow, You have my respect for being only 17 and jumping into a project that requires patience and skill. I would have loved it if I had a Dad that was into rebuilding cars and other stuff. Props to you and your dad I think that this will be a good learning/family bonding experience.
