I am ahead on the money enough to buy another beater and then some, but I need a rest for a while!

Despite the questionable beginning... you have done well with the euro and have done an excellent job! Sometimes it just takes seeing past the crud and filth to see the gem underneath... and the willingness to roll up your sleeves and start polishing!

Nice save!

Amazing. Just having the vision is huge, but following all the way through is very rare.

Where's this Asian chic??? I need to see this Asian chic.

Don't sell the Vette! 1968 Corvette prices are going up BY THE DAY even during this recession. That is the only SURE investment vehicle I see in your list.
I totally understand your situation, guys like us never really know what we're doing or what we really want. Changing our minds halfway through a money pit project... I know, it's tuff. At least you finished one, really nicely! Good job.
So many guys are coming up with great ideas here, I know how your ever going to decide what to do!

The thread's been going for several months now... I am sure it was someone's former avatar.

Having watched a good bit of the transformation - I'm here to tell you it was a lot of work and attention to detail...... and Mark is good at it!
But Mark - in all that time there was only one thing you forgot to put in the car.....












fifth gear.
