Hot Rod Philosophy


I've been watching a lot of David Freiburger on YouTube lately and I am struck by his very pragmatic approach to getting things done.

Special alumimun wrenches for tightening AN fittings?  Nope, normal wrenches.

Spend days on a side quest to make the part he's working on emaculate?  Nope, mask and rattle can after a quick spray of soap and water.

But he also still makes sure the job is getting done right when it matters.  If the goal is to make it run and live, but not to make it pretty, he dispenses with the pretty.  We've seen him make pretty stuff, he knows how.
