      Lots of people do this and it blows my mind. I think some people enjoy the build experience more than actually using the thing. Or, for people who pay boatloads of money for someone to build their car, only to sell it immediately after- maybe they got in over their heads with how much it would actually cost

    Don’t think I can remember a Kindigit car that I didn’t like , literally ever car I’ve seen from him is exceptionally Top shelf, huge attention to small details hits big in the end result, think my favorite was the 68 chevelle he built for some guy who’s had Dave build several rides for him but that chevelle had so much power it was insane ,gotta feel blessed to be able to afford to have somebody like Dave build you a car of your dreams , this Cadi is awesome 💯👍🏼
