Ok I'll jump in as well Jim. First I'm with you on wow I had a car that ran and drove and now I took it apart to "build it" lol

I think sometimes for some of us (not me every day) that are in the industry; we get burned out and when you get home you just think it would be cool to just jump in a car and go cruse around, go racing or what ever. I'm somewhat lucky because I work in the industry but I don't work on cars all day.

I'm with you, I like the planning, the building, the finished product but then I get board and I want to start the next project. Once I get into the next one I think what the he!! am I doing

I'm just getting back on my 2nd gen after it sitting for 9 months. I would play here and there but just not much motivation to really get on it. The crazy thing is I had lots of motivation to do other things, bike ride like crazy, yard work, stuff around the house.

I'm not building a car to the caliber that you are as far as parts and fab work and mine still runs but I still need an LS motor

I'm building something I can get in and go for a drive and have fun with, could I build a 100K plus car sure I can (not at once but sure)! I chose to do other things that make me happy, like bike riding (which is about to cost me more money Marty but I'm good with it and when my car is done it's done!

When it becomes like work to go out in the shop and work on your car that's when you need to take a step back and say either I need a break or maybe I shouldn't be building it in the first place??

I think my next project will most likely be a newer car or truck?? I've thought of selling what I have and just go get a C6 Z06 and mess with it maybe I will but then I think I can't have both my kids at the same time so then I think I'll build a truck?? Or buy a new one and do it up

If you are still happy with the build keep going and you will get it done, if not well you know what to do, just have Tom bank roll it to finish it up??
