I cook meth out in the shed-- it's tax-free supplemental cash income.

Er, I mean I have a good paying job, and still living at home since I recently got out of school. Doesn't help that I can't afford an average price home here in CA. So, I play with the car a lot and save at the same time.

I also do a lot of computer side jobs on the side (network installs and maintenance, custom builds, etc), car side jobs (mods, audio installs, etc.) and that helps too.

My car would have been done by now, but unfortunately I was one stinking number off from winnng 35 million in the lotto in January (seriously, I'm not joking about that, and to top it off the number I missed was only one digit away from the winner!) Still got $30K out of it by the time Uncle Sam got his cut, so it was better than a poke in the eye!

If I was foolish I would have spent all that money on paint and going to twin turbos, but I decided to invest it instead and continue with the car as my "normal budget" allows.

I dont have a high paying job, but i've saved my money... got some good deals, knew some people that knew people that could do stuff for cheap.

Took me almost 3 years to get things to my liking.

Btw, i've been in college the entire time of the build

I make decent money and don't owe anybody but family and the mortage. If I would concentrate on one project I might finish quicker. Too many toys.
