We have one member that has to stop because of health reason and we have some that have financial ,or just no more interest. You can go on and on . You just don't know what tommorow will bring..

I also blame my current build (or thank it) to this website and pro-touring.com (and Frank

) Until I found these sites, my car was going to be a mild build with a sbc crate, leaf spring/ladder bar set up and a few other mods. I came on here and now it's a full pro-touring build that is taking forever to build. I think we should just shut down the websites

j/k. My goal for the build though has always been to save money for the parts, and then buy the parts. Save again and buy again. I'm lucky enough to have a job that allows me to work overtime to save up for the parts. These cars become an addiction! It's how you deal with that addiction that matters. It sucks to hear about the guys that have to sell their builds for whatever reason and life is way to short to worry about cars. If getting rid of it helps settle things at home..that's the way it has to be. For me, having the car to work on is therapeutic. I get to go into the shop and take my mind off things and just beat on some metal.
