I did my build little by little, one part at a time. I try to pay cash but if something fails, like when my rear went out, Ill throw it on a 0 apr card and pay it off quick. Like when I had my paint done by Maaco I opened up one of their cards and payed it off with no interest. If you can afford the payments and pay it off before interest hits, its really a nice option.

Lately I’ve been trying to seperate any youtube revenue I earn and use that strictly for car parts. Anything I earn goes towards the car, and I get a video out of it for my subscribers. Hoping to keep the channel growing to fund the car and future builds that way.

Thanks, I'll have to check it out. I started doing some stuff on YouTube but it's nothing I have time to take very seriously. I build something and I try to film and upload as I can.

Yea thats kind of how I am at the moment. I try to get a video a week out, and lately Ive been consistant with it. But between actually working on the car and getting time to edit, it can feel like a second job.
