    Hey Tree, I resemble a lot of those things!!!! I thought maybe your absence meant you had actually got something done and were out cruising and I was jealous!!!!!!!!!

    Thats the goal this year Dave, more time in them going down the road, then under and around the car parked.
    I'm also selling some stuff off ! ... "don't know what yet " but "I AM! "

    I get side tracked way to easy, wasn’t a big deal when I had all the time in the world but now most of my time is spoken for so ... I've got to pick what I want to work on ,instead of letting it pick me.

    I'm pulling a few parts to keep and putting the rest on craigslist or something ,most of my (seasoned) buddies here at CHR have said
    "build it so you can sell it later"
    and I thought ... I'm not going to want to sell this !

    I've just got to much junk mixed in amongst the good ideas.
    too much collecting not enough time.
    and still I see things and think how would I park the trailer to load it the easiest ....
    I need to check myself into the henry ford clinic or something!

    I know what you mean. We did an addition to our house three years ago and never finished some trim work, trim paint etc. In the mean time I relanscaped the yard, which needs lots of attention to keep it nice. My Harley sits neglected, the truck project is a balance of free time with the house yard, work ...my wife also needs attention, sooo it can get over whelming, not to mention I didn't get out once last year to fish, and this year, the fish and game are going to stop salmon fishing all together!

    I'm just wanting.. all i want ... i just need .. a 51' Merc, an old open engine Vicky, a insane 4wheel'n mud'N/rock crawler 16 point roll , a flat 60? sled with fender skirts .... all for cruising that'll carry 4 or 6 people.

    an old truck to cruise ,a not so old truck to work

    an insanely scary fast and loud streetable car,,,,....

    one 4wheel drive thats quiet comfortable w/ room for guns out of the rain and room for gear ,can be as ugly as it wants, as long as it'll pull a boat or camper ....

    a few two wheelers ... ( easier to store )

    and every other little odd ball to far gone for the money to fix it, project I can find.

    I think I may have just helped my self ...

    NOW if I could just not buy things for the sake of getting a deal ... that would be awesome!! …. I would stick to this little bit of personal inlightenment that I’ve needed to type out in front of me sos I could read it

    stovens: thank the lord ,all I have on the HunEdew list right now is a porch and a few fences that are actually going to pull from my time, everything else is up keep and maintenance that she wants .
