6 1/2 - the half is letting Mother Nature wash it.

This is absolutely no joke: I bought a one-owner car and the PO provided every maintenance receipt going back to day 1 (1" thick pile). Lots of them were only for oil changes but there is one that shows he brought the car in for "replace tail light bulb and put bra in trunk"! $26. I chuckle every time I think about that one. Guess he was a Bif too.

That's a good type to be, IMHO.

The guy who lives in my garage rebuilt my engine and swears he will never take his cars to a shop.

I just drive them.

Oh wait, that's the other me out there.

Cool Type

Number 2 here, only NO Caynons just pot holes and slow drivers in the left lane. Thus, only time to carve anything is the loose concrete embedded in my paint.

I'm a 13. I drive it to work on fridays..if it's not raining, drive like I stole it mostly on the weekends, don't DE or Auto X, don't belong to PCA, am months overdue in my renewal to the early S registry, do most of my own work, and am forced to leave it stock because it's original. Don't own a sweater of any kind, hey it's Florida, but I do like leather.

Number 3.

Going fast is fun. A little oversteer does wonders for your cardiovascular system.

I am definitely number 4. I'm the fifth owner of a
complete teardown restoration started by the second owner.
PO number 3 just brokered the car to PO number 4, who
spent a year buying the missing pieces so he could sell
me a car in a box. When I finish, I'll be the first owner
since the original to actually drive it.
I can't wait to fall into one of the other categories.

How about a category for those of us who would like to get into DIY more, but only have one car (the p-car) and can't afford to have it off the road for as long as it would take to figure out how to do something?

I am a 6 no doubt about it... samething with the bikes.... I used to build wild bikes with tons of chrome and polished aluminum... my bike is totally stock looking with motor mods cause I never clean it. I'd rather ride/drive then clean/polish either the cars or the bike.
