That's half the battle...at least she likes them. My wife's entire family thinks I'm an idiot because I "fix up crappy old cars".
Get this: We bought a house in 03 and when we moved in, I towed my 70 Nova (in pieces) to the house and put it in the garage. Since the house was filled with other stuff from the previous family, (this house was a foreclosure) my wife's parents and grandparents opened the garage to see my Nova on jack stands. Her grandmother yells, "oh wow, they left that old POS here, I wonder who will take that...the Salvation Army maybe?" I had all I could do to keep my mouth shut...no one even stuck up for me!
