Steve your situation sounds a lot like mine! A house full of projects and a supportive better half! (we are still working on kids, though!) Somehow, progress still happens on the cars...slowly but surely...

Huh? Wha? What's this? What's Casade?
I'm on year number 4 with my car but thankfully I'm approaching the half-way point this Summer. The goal is Woodward Cruise 2007.
Let's see your car, bro. Got any pictures?
