If you truly want to build an economy car, FIRST make up your mind you are willing to put in the effort.
I've come to the conclusion that work space comes before the work. You can't disassemble a car in a single-car garage. Over the years, I've had not even a shade tree or a dirt-floor chicken coop. Never had a two-post lift. Today I can choose between a shade tree and a carport.

Do you use cryogenic tempered brake parts? I've found them very successful. I think I will get drums and rotors for my new Metro, get them tempered, and save them against the eventual brake job.
