For me it’s a question of time. The last year has been terrible, three kids in sports, my wife and I both coaching, 50+ hour work weeks, travel, I had zero time for an old car. Now, in the age of CV? I’d kill for a fun car project. I’m absolutely the kind of guy that could retire and restore an old 911 bolt by bolt. It’s more fun when there’s no pressure, that’s one thing I’ve learned.

Cliff have you thought about buying something newer, fun, and just reliable? Paul’s suggestion is valid, a car that’s fun but just needs oil changes every 5k. I’ve considered it myself, particularly in the age of 0% for 84 months. A PP2 or Bullitt Mustang sounds pretty good sometimes.
