Meh

I just don't have any motivation for working on cars anymore. I've tried different things to get the enthusiasm back but it's just gone I don't think it's coming back and it's time to face facts.

[...whole bunch of details about various cars I'm considering just getting rid of...]

I was in a lousy mood, am going to sleep on it and then maybe work on getting rid of cars one by one in order of what I want around the least. Would delete this thread but don't see a way to. Sorry for the bother.

The only problem with getting too many project cars at one time is finally the feeling of never ever going to be able to do them.

I'm there right now and working on purging myself.

What about the house and the garage? I was about to put my Mount Washington house on the market and move to Columbia! Much better asian food down there.
