I have suffered from many set backs due to mistakes made by suppliers and waiting on others to perform their job which always took WAY longer than they originally quoted me. I am running out of time to have to devote to this car. I do not see myself having the time to finish this anymore. Things in my life have changed and take precedent to the build of this car. I, at this point, am ready to sell it. I'll continue to finish up the mock up and fabrication of this car's setup. However, I expect to be putting this thing on the market in the coming weeks, unfortunately. I could set it aside for a future time when I have time again, but I do not foresee that being within the next few years. I'd rather move on from this and concentrate on my schooling, work and most of all family. I, intend, in the future to get back in the game, but this time around, I'm gonna have to bow out.

I know that feeling. I'm still living it myself. I wanted my TA on the road before I moved away to, originally, Colorado. That was July 2010. I missed it by a small amount. The car is still sitting back in Georgia and i have no idea when I'll be able to bring it out to where I am. I'm in Kansas now and am trying to get back to Colorado. As much as I hate seeing and knowing it's sitting, that's easier than me having it out here with me and having to move it each time I move. So I try to be patient and save my money. Admittedly, I live vicariously through people on this board. I get ideas from their builds and I learn what I can so that I can apply it all to my car when the time comes. All the while though, my car is for sale also. If someone comes along and buys it, fine. If not, fine. I have other priorities to devote my time to and can't change that without making what I believe would be a mistake. Maybe take a similar approach to what I have done. Put it up for sale and see if anyone wants it. If you don't need the space it occupies, let it be. Just be sure to put it in a state that it won't deteriorate too much. Maybe one day you'll get back to it and finally finish. Patience and perseverance.

Good luck.
