if everyone thinks their car is a wise investment I pitty them.
If you are building a car and worry about resale value MORE than what YOU WANT, I pitty you.

I won't get back the cost of 30 years of traveling for snowboarding, mountainbiking or surf trips or wakeboarding or motocross or jet skiing. Do I care? F no? Will I get back the $$spent at bars for the last 30+ years? Not a chance. Do I care?

I work to live I don't live to work. I could have bought a 911 or some other iconic supercar and lost my ass on that but I chose a Torino.

Don't buy any Starbucks lattes they are over priced

Hell Yeah!!! I have had the chevelle for over 20 years and am just now getting to make it my dream car. I put it on hold to take care of myself and family first. I could have probably built it a couple of times over had I not been at the "bars"
people ask why don't you go buy a 'vette or something? I say well anybody can do that. I like to be different.

Rob -Good news, the wheels showed up today. Grabbed a pic just to double check you were ok with how it looked on the ride height you wanted.

Why would anyone take a set of Greg Weld's wheels and put them on Rob's car? What a slap in the face to GW's wheels.
