    You'll appreciate owning a house much more than having your car completed. Congrats!

    thanks a lot you guys! yeah when i found out i wouldnt be able to finish the car i was like whatever dude! i was juggling both at the same time and i was on schedule for finishing the car but it just got to a point where i couldnt have the car all nice and done while sealing the deal on the house. so needless to say it was a no brainer as to what i was gonna go hard with. for the past 4 years that ive been with my wife ive dreamt of this day and i refused to let anything get in the way of my dream. Actually the only reason why i wanted the car done was so that i wont have any projects once im in the house (cuz i know ima be gettin my Bob Vila on! lol) but its all good. Once the home is furnished and we do everything to make it OUR home then i'll probably start back up with working on the car. If im not too caught up buying the latest and greatest in landscaping tools and workbenches and Dyson vacuums and energy saver windows and shit and shit lol! But yeah i couldnt be happier. and David EVERYONE is invited!

    well almost everyone. you IA weirdos can stay at wherever you stay.
