we also bought a streetrod from Steve Webber, being a mechanic and building several racecars we were familiar with what we wanted. we did not get anything we asked for instead have a fiberglass body that you cannot do anything with. this was $33,000 of mess is impossible to fix.
we wanted to be able to show this car but really are ashamed to take it out of the shop. parts on this car look like they were from old bed frames, not really what you expect for $33,000 cash! this has been a nightmare since I bought it for my husband who had a stroke 6 years ago and was really not able to work on this car like he has had to do. would not recommend anyone buying from Steve Webber. He is not a truthful man at all.
