What's your excuse??

[dhondagod]

I think we all have a passion to build our cars the way we want them but it seems it takes ALOT longer for some of us (myself included) to be able to get them "done". This got me thinking about what or if there was a common denominator that keeps us from building our dream cars.


My excuse lately is Im mid-stride remodeling our house and putting on a new roof. Money is always an issue but money can be made when needed. Time seems to be my biggest barrier.


So, what keeps you from working on your car?

Money.

Work. I travel for a living and will be gone for weeks at a time. Of course I have weeks at a time at home to, but that's my excuse.

Stupid job....

Time is the biggest thing for me. I am 3.5 hours away from my car. $ is a key factor, although I enjoy the hunt for finding parts at a cheaper rate and saving money. I almost get as much thrill out of searching for parts on the net and at swap meets, as I do working on my car.
Time and money is the key factors until I get out of school. It will be done one day!

Well I am building a shop to work in but winter came before I got power and heat in it, now I'm working 60 hr weeks and taking 12 college credits.I'm lucking to even check things out here.

I have too many cars and not enough room to work on them. That should be cured this year however, we bought some property to build a house and BIG shop on. I outgrew my 3-car garage after 6 months of living here.

Long hours at work, household projects, and a lack of work space. My 2 car garage is packed tight with the Camaro, Chevelle, and everything else. I live in a townhouse with a homeowners association, so I'm already pushing it with the daily driver and work car parked outside. I could really use a 3 car garage, but can't afford it with real estate costing what it does here.

Time... I have two teenage kids that are constantly eating up my Saturdays and Sundays, then the summer comes and it's the Beach the Boat and all the fun things that go along with summer. Money too...
