For me, it's achievement in doing something new to me or simply completing a goal. Learning a new skill or taking a different approach with a skill and the whole build process are enjoyable to me. I build for me and me alone. I do appreciate any accolades I receive on my work but I won't be happy if it's not what I wanted or to my liking. I'm more turned on my the older cars than most new cars from a styling stand point but the engineer in me loves the new performance technology. So I'd like to blend them together to make a car that I enjoy driving and caring for. While I do enjoy the many and vast styling aspects found in this particular segment of the car hobby, the driving pleasure is what I'm after the most. Of course, from there the decisions get hard as to which direction to go with parts selection in order to achieve that goal.
