I enjoyed reading all the responses and thank-you to DanielDudley for your contribution.

I am currently 49 and like all of you have been a gear head for decades, I've built some amazing cars over the years and I've decided to continue raising the bar. I've added 3D modelling, Solidworks, a 3D printer and other fabrication tools to my garage to make it fun, easier, more accurate and to develop or increase my technical skills.

I've never been much of a TV couch guy or Sports guy as I prefer messing around in the garage, the only time I watch TV is for an hour or so or a good movie to relax with my wife.

Typically I dream up projects much faster than I can execute and so my punch list is getting long.
But what is cool is that my neighbor who's well into his '70s and a huge gearhead, I keep him excited with the things I'm doing and he does the same for me. We basically live in each other's garage.

This year I am going to complete the following projects:
1) Turbocharge my 1986 BMW635 CSi...with a 400hp goal in mind
2) Complete a Haltech EFI in my Datsun 280ZX Turbo...with a 450hp goal in mind
3) Finish refurbishing my 1987 Porsche 928S4 Manual
4) Finish a whole bunch of things on my 1988 928S4 Manual
5) Finish a complete refurb on my 1979 Euro BMW 635 CSI
6) Finish a sympathetic restoration on my 1988 Mazda 323 GTX

That list should keep my out of trouble.
