Re: Too Much $$$$ - musings a week before payday

[Mark Mages <wasserbox@yahoo.com>]

hehehe - yah, you are a lost cause....

My aim is NOT to build a show car tho... I just want
something reliable that doesn't rattle, squeak or
thump that runs like a bat out of hell, and looks
good.

essentially a show car without the 15 coats of
paint...
:)

The main thing that was buggin me tho, is that I
really don't have all that much to show for the $$$ I
spent.  65% of it is in the suspension and the stereo.
 I still have engine, tranny & exhaust to go.
Thankfully I was broke as hell a year and a half ago,
and couldn't afford to have the local shop do the
repairs needed, and found the joys of getting oil and
dirt permanently embedded in my fingers.  Since then I
have done almost everything I couldn't get done for
free myself.  If I had to pay $50/hr everytime I
needed something fixed, I'd be hurtin for certain.

Thanks all for the words of encouragement
