I know the feeling. :cry:

Four years ago I said my car would finished in 6 months.
Then it was a year.
Then it was 6 months after that.

Way back in may this year I was aiming for a september finish, then it was november,
now I just don't know.

Still, I'mm happy to crawl along at the snails pace I am, even if everyone else isn't. :lol:

Not always. First thing on my car I did was rebuild the brakes.
They're now five years old without use, I probably need to replace the cylinders so they don't lead. :?
