Just paid my finish-the-2.8 engine-fund on the balance of my home renovation. Time to save up again and add to my procrastination of finishing my /6 conversion (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

In my head I justified the fact I can live in the building, but can't live in the Speedster. The 2 that got away (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |

The biggie is the paying to have the 2.8 built...all the parts bought and paid for, just the labor the pay for an expert putting it together. Once that's done, it'll mostly be sweat equity putting everything together and getting some expert friends to baseline it.
I've put off the car project for similar reasons, a house helps 3 of us, and car just one. I did have to sell off my 280c and some motorcycles I'd love to have back...but the 914 will never go. As for the house, the only part left is turning my screen porch into a 3-season sunroom....hopefully that's just $10k in windows and a lot of labor hours. |
