cars
I feel your pain. My car needed a valve job and a front end rebuild 3 years ago...what did it get? A big block with a pro-charger, well not really, I traded it for an LS1/T56 and a 12 bolt. Well not really, I sold the LS1 to my friend and bought another LS1 short block. Got head and cam package,etc. I was going to smooth the fire wall, that did not happen either. It got media blasted and every piece of sheet metal was replace with NOS stuff. I am on my 3rd set of rims and tires. So if you have been keeping up, my car has been down 3 years. It has had 3 new motors, 2 transmissions a complete body make-over, 3 sets of tires and rims, 2 rear ends and I am on my second subframe. Need I go on!
My opinion on making it too nice to drive. No such thing. If figure if I am going to paint the bottom of the car a semi-black it will just as much work to paint it yellow like the rest of the car. Everything will be done to the best of my ability and if something starts looking too ugly...it should not be that much work to touch it up. I do not want to have a 1:1 scale die cast model in my garage. That just is not me.
