You guys all must be marrying the wrong women.


I don't have any problems being married. I absolutely love it. The sooner you realize its a give/take type thing, everything is fine. If i want to work on my car, i work on it. Period. She doesn't mind one bit. And if she has any projects of her own she needs me to do, i don't have a problem doing them. Things are balanced in perfect harmony. Nothing to work at, i just love life and love my wife.. :)
 
Sad but true. She used to like the car, but the recent 5 lug swap/ suspension rebuild really tested her patience.

Ught oh sounds like Bridezilla's coming out.

If i ever got an ultimatum that it was me or the car, I'd give her the boot. and before you say oh its just a material possession, well to you i say thats BS, the car is a part of me and if a chick dosent understand that then she dosent understand me.

Plus the cars lasted longer than any broad so far... and this car has given me alot of sheet :flag:

I had a chick try and make me choose between her and the arts, i wonder what ever happened to her...

You are preaching to the choir, man. I have left girls before because of -or at least influenced- by the car. Its not just the car itself that is important, its what it symbolizes: my passion for the automobile and my personal self expression. Any girl who understands me well enough would know that asking me to get rid of the car would be like asking me to get rid of a part of what makes me, me.

The fiance understands that, but I can see already that my hobbies and how much time I spend on them is going to be a main point of conversation in our pre-marriage counseling.

Sorry for the OT!
 
:rlaugh:


Jeebus mang! Run....We all thought we married the right one....and 99% of us realized we were wrong. RUN RUN!

I damn sure did.....almost cost me my 94. :nonono:

If she knows your passion for both the 'Stang and cars in general she shouldn't mind. I learned the hard way...

She's watching you post isn't she?


Just messing.....nah married life is good. I have found out though that married life means a different set of priorities most of the time. My wife is cool with me spending some time on my car, but its a delicate balance. Finances are as well.... :D
 
My project is to get the engine back in the car. I hate that I'm installing a completely stock engine into an engine bay that could use some rust-correction attention but I've got a nice wad of student debt and no income so for now it's just gotta run for next season lol
 
With the amount of snow we're getting here this thing is going in the barn for at least 6 months...:( Global Warming? Not here buddy!! Will try to find a decent 4 lugs brake upgrade for the front since I can't do much in the back because of the 4 lugs Strange 31 splines Tuff axles and C-Clip eliminators I just installed for mucho $$... Will also try to find a strut tower brace that can clear the Edelbrock RPM II intake. Planning on buying these 4 lugs 17X10 SC replicas with 3,5 inches lips at the rear and 17X9 for the front. Priority #1 is the brakes cause the car already sticks like hell in the twisties and I want to do some lapping next summer. These stock brakes are a shame!:notnice: Any suggestions will be well taken for a brake upgrade!

Oh! And I forgot to tell you I'm planning on winning the lottery to pay for all this!
 
just got an off-road x and some bassani mufflers cold air and install my new gear set. Kinda hate changing the stock setup cause i know there is not many unmolested cars.
bye bye stocker.
