Rather than just buy a Driver, I took the car that I have owned for 28 years and started on it.. Rookie mistake number one.

It was due to sentimental reasons. I have had the car since I was 23 years old and my Parents were still alive, so it has a great value to me in my Heart. Rookie mistake number two.

I took my factory Z/28 and started modifying it.. Rookie mistake number three.

It needed so much work with everything from Suspension, Brakes, Exhaust, steering, ect.., that I blew my first chunk of money quickly.

Then I told my Wife how much I spent so far. Rookie mistake number three. So it cost me buying her a new 370Z, and a kitchen remodel. There went the Interior money and engine upgrade money.

So, I am making rookie mistakes along the way , and I will never be in the league of some of you guys, but i plan to have fun soon.

So I am sure that I will never be done. Even when I finish one phase, there will always be more to do, or fix.
