I bought mine about a year ago, intending to be a daily driver but the engine shelled the second day I had it. Since then, it's been a series of projects, all with the intention of driving it soon. It just doesn't work out that way. You know how it goes. "I really otta update the brakes while the truck is tore down." "Might as well re-wire it cause I can't afford a motor yet." "It's just sitting here. I wonder how it would look lowered a bit."
All the while, my daily driver sits in the shop torn apart. I probably could have had it on the road, but "I" keep on getting in the way. It sure is good therapy, though. Me. In the shop with a worthy project. Maybe a couple of beverages and the Speed channel. Life is good!
