Okay so back to the post at hand.
I've built countless Trucks and a hadful of cars.
Something happended several years back and I decided to see what I could do if I started a project and then teamed up with the best shop out there. The goal was to build something completely different and do it over time. For me it's about the journey. I love planning the build, sourcing the parts, finding new idea's for each phase of the build.
I've met and worked with some incredible people. For me it's all about the friendship and the hobby.
I don't drink, I don't smoke, don't do drugs and I'm married so I don't have nearly as much sex I would like ( please I hope my wife doesn't read this ). heck I don't even drink soda as i find it's a waste of money.
So I have more money available for my hobby them most. If I spend more the 7 or 8 bucks on lunch / dinner I am actually angry because to me that's money I could be spending on my hobbies ( cars & Mountain Bikes )
Trust me you think car's are expensive try spending $1400.00 for a set of rims for a bike. The $200.00 for disk brakes and $100.00 for a cassette and you still have to pedal it up hill.
I have no clue if what i've posted makes any sense for me it was just a rant and I do feel better.
ps The next project which is in the planning stage will be on a completely different budget plan but should attract just as much attention as my current build.
