Josh I was teasing you I swear!
yeah If I had the determination you have into your car, mine would look HALF
as sweet as yours would...no doubt the cost is more and the bigger sacrifice
is indeed the $$ value of the damn cost of mechanics... and why I am still..
6 weeks later doing my 2L project... and I hope I will have enough time to
finish it for cincy...which at this point is starting to make me very
nervous, looking at my engine on the stand, pistons rings not here, and
going... man this is going to be hell and I have not even started yet.

Its also the simple fact that some people just don't have mechanical
skills. I learned back 10 + years ago that, Josh + Working on own car =
bigger problem. I can do minor things, but big work equals a nono.I worked
countless hours at shitty jobs pulling overtime every week almost. I also
didn't spend money on anything else. In short, to have the car I have now, I
busted my ass. I wish I had the skills to do what has been done to it,
things would have been much easier. Researching parts, finding parts, and
having a vision of an unique car is also much harder than just thumbing
through a catalogue and picking out items.
I also have by the gallon - "you all put in the blood, sweat and tears"

well thank you, though I personally do it myself because a) I am married
b) It;s my damn garage c) see reason (a).
as for people that can afford to get the work done by someone else
CjOoUsGhH.. well if you have the money and a) no desire or will to know how
to do it yourself and you can afford it, more power to you... there are days
when rebuilding my 2L I remind myself I could of drop the car at paint shop,
and engine at engine shop and wait 2 weeks and get it all in one piece
working... nahhhh 6 weeks later my engine bay is still empty and I am still
waiting for piston rings to arrive... yeah.. sucks.

Nah, most people here seem to do their own stuff. I know a few of you
have taken your cars to the shop for the PITA stuff but that's it. Tobias
didn't call his body shop and go hey, throw these bimmer lights in for me.
Brian rebuilt his engine 50 times himself. Allyn painted his own rims. Ect,
ect you get the idea. Coming from Albany, I get irked when I hear punks
talking about how they've spent $30,000 on their car for paint, enginework,
bodykit, ect. Any schmuck can pick parts out of a catalogue and go up to a
garage and say here, put this in. I have respect for everyone here because
when it comes time to wrench on your car, you all put in the blood, sweat
and tears. Guess that's why our cars are better than everyone elses! ;)
