...The Kids Car He bumbles onto the site, in between building & taking down the walls of his house (something he does regularly purely to p**s of his wife & the local planning authority), just to give everyone helpful technical advice ;D. & how does he know all this stuff..........It's cos his garden resembles a car grave yard & is full of incomplete car projects ;D

Actually though, just to let everyone in on a little secret, TKC is great . A very exciting man to be married to! How many men would demolish one wall of the house because they decided one of the windows was in the wrong place........whilst their wife was at work? ;D She must return from every trip out wondering what minor & inspirational improvement her husband has made to their home in the brief moments she was away from it!

That's not my garden, I stopped stacking them two high years ago As for the wife, I just like to keep her on her toes and not let her get too comfy or complacent ;D Variety is the spice of life and all that.

Ooops should have been more photo's will try again here goes. Small blue tarp is an MG Midget, the bigger one is a friends Jensen Believe it or not that's a stainless steel chassis for eagle ss No.1 Under blue tarp is the un molested Eagle body shell Another yank tank under yet another blue tarp, this one is in two parts (bodywise and alot of other bits in another garage) Well there you go, normal garden for most isn't it? ;D So many projects so little time, all I need now is more hours in the day and a load more energy and money and I'm sorted.

Errr yes not far off I suppose but believe it or not I have actually got rid of some cars over the past couple of years (mostly to the crushers but a few were projects that I knew I would never get round to completing so sold on or gave to people I knew would do them justice). I have 6 car projects that have to be done, a seventh will be added next year the rest are ones that I would like to do but will have to wait for a fair few years before I could possibly get around to them and by then I will probably be too bloody old to do them anyway ;D Bugger not enough time in one life to do all the things I want to do. Think I will go and drink some apples ;D

So basically you never finish anything you start, whether it is a car or a house

Well if you put it that bluntly your probably right, oh hang on no I did manage car projects years ago, all sorts, mainly bigger engines in smaller cars etc. but since having KIDS no I haven't finished a major car project. The Nova should be the first and then I think it will be the Corvette (want to strip it to the chassis and get it looking nice again) at the same time I will be doing the first Eagle ss and if I get some space sorted I want to start constructing the 32, I have the engine all built up and ready, the rear axle, wheels and tyres plus loads of bits and pieces. Bugger forgot will have to start the seventh project next year as well, not even sure what it is going to be just yet but as projects take so long nowadays I need at least a year and the next driver in the family will be sixteen this December. Oh hell more expense.
