Make it stop!!
 

Ugh. I can't help myself. I promised my wife I would not buy anything else for the car this year unless it was absolutely necessary.

So I ordered up some DSE fender braces and Ring Brothers stainless bolts. I have a couple of shows coming up this year...thought it would be cool to win a trophy after all this effort so the details matter. I guess necessity is fluid in this hobby.

I feel shame. :_paranoid

how many shoes does she have?

She only "needs" one pair

Don't feel shame

I thought stainless was a necessity! :D :_paranoid

Just tell her you didnt want anything to rust so you HAD to get stainless and/or aluminum STUFF! :unibrow:

:lol:

Just admit your problem and join the circle like the rest of us....


"Hi, I'm Josh and I have an automotive addiction"

"Hi Josh!"

Well...I DO live in Minnesota! Rust is the enemy! ;)

That's the reason I got the bolts in the first place. Take the stock fender bolts out a few times, and before you know it, it's rusting where the paint came off.

I needed the adjustable fender struts to help align the sheetmetal...we know how difficult that is on a '69 Firebird! Right?!?

Whew...that was easy! Justification, check!

Hi, my name is Josh, I have a problem and so do I. :willy:

Good answer!!:thumbsup:

just take here to saks and get here some new shoes and they tell her what you bought...:unibrow:

One time my wife came home from a trip to another state -- where my brother in law lives (I've known him longer than I've known her!) and she walks through the shop (some buddies there) and says... "So.... just how many cars DO you have...." And keeps on walking... not waiting for an answer.

My buddies were in shock. I just continued on as though nothing had happened.

She had been out to her brothers warehouse... and he squealed.


BTW -- NEVER open the "shoe" argument. You will solve nothing. And you will never win. Don't ask. I figure she spends X2 or 3 on clothes for every dollar I send on car "stuff" --- and my stuff has value IF I wanted to sell... show me the value of used clothes or "trips"... LOL BUT DON'T EVER GO THERE if you know what's good for you. "Yes dear" is the proper response.
