• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Are you addicted... to working on cars?

Clean. And you have the poopy stock airbox on still!
 
I really hate working on cars even though I am more than capable. I'm probably going to be fixing my radio back lights and might be looking into a heater core change. Yippee.
 
working on a car that i don't have to make sure i can drive the next morning is way more entertaining than having to rush a mod/fix so i can get to work.

second cars fooor the win.
 


Everytime I take the time to paint something under the hood...it ends up needing to be pulled back off or I randomly have some leak so screw painting!
 
Some things figure in on your enjoyment of it :
1.) Is this your only car and you need to get to work in the morning and it is getting late .
2.) Can you afford to fix it right and replace the things that break while you are fixing the original problem.
3.) Do you have the appropriate tools, time and energy,knowledge and physical ability.
 
One thing i hate is when there is a bolt, and its so tight it takes me an hour just to get it off.. thats when i start to get angry when working on the car.. because everything goes so smooth, then there is just that one bolt that ruins it!
