They helped as there were none on the car ,at $395 for the kit it was not to bad.I had a power saw ,drill press and a wire welder already.My dad had a small machine shop in the back of his 30' x 40' garage.I grew up with that and took a two year machine shop class in High School at a vo-tech school then a four year apprentice class at night working in a shop in the daytime, my company would pay for it if you kept passing grades.
