Thanks for the thoughts and the kind vote of non-confidence... The current VX project is remaining a project due to lack of time most of my life... I am a single, full-time dad and so my son takes up MOST of my time... its a rare occassion that I have time to myself... when I do, I go in the garage and tinker. The ability to finish the project isn't a problem... the true challenges in this project have been overcome... I only need to find time to do some wiring, plumbing of fuel lines, plumbing of radiator hoses, plumbing of exhaust (actually gonna be done by a good friend of mine in his exhaust shop), and then its pretty much ready to fire up. Drive shafts are the only cost remaining in the project as everything else is sitting in the garage... so finances aren't a concern with that... it is also paid off and has been paid off for quite some time. I have no car payment right now, and haven't had one for over a year now. I have a beater that I drive now but it is on its last leg with 160K miles on it... it smokes in the morning and is due for a motor overhaul... or at least a top end overhaul. Honestly, I don't care much for the car anyway, so I don't want it...

Now, I have been commenting to friends for months now that I want a second VX that will remain mostly stock (with the exception of tires and maybe stereo)... with the problems I am having with my daily driver/beater... now might be a good time for me. sooooooooooo... no, money doesn't grow on trees but honestly, with the exception of my mortgage, I have no debt... my only expenses are my house and utilities... not that I have to explain to you or anyone else.

Again... thanks for the thoughts... have a WONDERFUL day!
