I've seen everyone's builds, and some of you've got some impressive shops hiding in the background of those build photos. After looking at so many of them I'd like to know what is essential to get the car right - the minimum. The RCR site says with basic tools, but I think most of us are well beyond being satisfied with just a basic car. TIG welder? Band saw? Drill press? Tools you use again and again and were worth the cost - IOW did your own welding instead of spending time and money waiting for a welding shop to do the work for you.
