You might be there...

There's got to be a 12 step meeting that can help:D

Joking, of course. I say it becomes a problem when you lose a job because of it.

Well, I had some leftover caliper paint and didn't want to throw it away.
I definitely get less sleep but I show up to work. I think I just need a 2 step meeting... sell one of my cars, buy a new project. :)

I've got a Jag I'll sell you, that will keep your O.C.D. fueled for quite a while.....

Glad I'm not alone!

That looks great. I have one more project for you; move the vise to the very corner of the table. Pet peeve of mine is a vise that's really far in on a table to where it's not as useful. :)

DSPTurtle 11-24-2013 06:13 PM

That vise has been in that spot for the last 15 years and about 10 cars. I'm pretty happy with its location. I just thought it needed a little R&R. Jeez... The Internet brings out the best in people, even the ones you kinda trust when they say something. Grrr

Tippy 11-24-2013 06:15 PM

I said it with a smiley and started with "looks great". :). No harm....

Actually I'm thinking either a basket case Countach or supercharging a 993 wide body. Not sure which quite yet but either will keep me too busy to be finger painting anymore. Lol

Yeh but my Jag is a "75 XJ6C with a 502 chevy{444hp / 513 ft/lbs + a built turbo400}, XJ40 suspension parts, posi, OZ rims, euro front & rear bumpers & valances etc. etc. etc.
You'd love it!
I'll make anybody a hell of a deal...really!

Wow Mark, that sounds bada$s!!! Post a pic

I have always had the hankering for a lightweight 911, semi stripped with a hot motor. Not crazy but maybe 2200 lbs with 300hp, it sounds like fun...

according to my wife, my passion became a problem when I got the second Porsche.

now with two running porsches along with a '78 930 and '86 944 turbo project cars on jack stands, she it trying to sign me up for counseling.

pretty sure I have passed the point of no return.
