Default Thirty feet closer to the road!!

I found a C4 that burned under the hood for cheap so the C3 is moving up to the front garage. Almost ready to hit the road while work will be starting on the C4 to rebuild the front end.

I think it is an illness.

Illness, addiction, obsession, whatever you call it, you're not alone. I'm great at starting projects, it's finishing them I have a problem with!

Want some advice? Finish the 72 before you get going on the C4. New projects have a knack of steering you away from the important stuff.

Finish the C3 first. Besides, we all know that C-3s are cooler cars anyway. Or if you need a winter beater that bad, start on the C-4....

I made the mistake of buying a 2nd C3 when I was working on my 1st one. Now I have several cars that all need work and are incomplete.

My wife asked me why I just dont finish one before I start on the others.

BLASPHEMY (irreverent behavior toward anything held sacred, priceless, etc.) I say. They all need attention.

yeah, I wanted to finish the c3 first. That one is the keeper. The c4 is just a poject that I plan to fix and flip. I have never been a fan of c4's.
