I did it again! 930 sat unused for 2 years, the SC, 3. I go through these phases in life, where I am busy concentrating on something else, and just cannot seem to find the time for a leisurely drive .
Once you let them sit for a year or more, now there is some time involved in charging batteries, and catching up with maintenance , and sometimes, you are lucky if they even start . Gotta clean them up , maybe a quick wax , air up the tires, clean the rims, vacuum , check for mice damage etc. Before you know it , that 45 minute drive takes 5 hours, or more to get ready for .
Once you have them up to snuff, it is no big deal, but life always seems to get in the way .
Also, I don't know about you guys, but stuff piles up in my garage where I store them . It took me an evening just to get at the cars over the past weekend , and re organize everything .
I always hear people say that they don't understand how someone can let nice cars sit, and get neglected, but I find it very difficult sometimes, and can totally see how a nice car becomes a non running dust bunny in the back corner of someones building .
I have owned my SC for over 25 years . There was a time where I daily drove it, and raced it . Built a few motors for it, refreshed the suspension twice , basically built the car mechanically twice in my ownership . Tracked it, road tripped it washed it daily, loved it , yet people will bust my balls if I let it sit for a few seasons.
It seems to get harder as I get older, however, once I am rolling down the road, it all seems to make sense again. I really enjoy it, and never want to sell any of it. I have basically obtained all the cars that I would like to take to the end of the road with me
