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?

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!

Mostly Time and the kids, Money I can come up with when I need it thanks to a great wife. I spend alot of time on the house as well. I figure the house is for the whole family to enjoy. The car is just my toy
