How much are you guys spending on restoration?

[214Chevy]

All I can say is you are not alone brother. I feel your pain. I am roughly $70K into my Chevelle and to me it doesn't look like the other guys cars who have spent a whole lot less. I have put on brakes only to change them out and buy something different. Bought suspensions, changed it. Bought wheels, didn't like them and sold them to buy another set. Bought rear ends, changed them. Just recently, last July of '08, I put in a TKO 600. Only put approx 150 miles on it. Just sold it and my big block and bought a T56 Magnum with an LS 6.0. Then to top it all off...my dumb ass just went and bought a '68 SWB C10 in December "08 and have already spent about $5k on it including the price of the truck with parts. Seriously, if I had all the money I've spent on cars and BS over the years my savings account would literally be at a balance of about $110k. I swear!! They say it's not good to swear, but I swear!!!! It's a good thing my wife knows nothing about cars. I buy something and she'll ask how much does it costs. I'll say $200, but it's about $1000. Or I'll sell something on ebay for chump change like $100 and I'll say I sold it for $900 to buy something else that's expensive. Hey!! I know I'm no better than a crackhead, heroin addict or alcoholic.

****PS, don't tell my wife. LOL!!
