Thinking about it

As the title says, been thinking about it a lot and selling up, but keeping the chassis and docs in case i come back to it.
So it would be escort back axle, type 9 box re built 205 block pinto with bike carbs, prop shocks,lights, etc.

My wife thinks i should keep it.





Think about it, think about it again and then do it.

I too say to keep it,
close the garage door, focus on christmas time with your family, then go back to it after the festive seaon in time for spring & nice sunny days on the road.

cheers

In my experience the cost of replacing sold items is always more than you make, the T9 box for example they're going balistic now.

Another vote to pack it all up and wait for the enthusiasm to return.

I suppose the main problem is that the car is a 170 mile round trip from home at the moment, not making it easy and just loosing interest in it.
I know if it went i would want another project i like working on them more than anything.

Keep it!

If you sell up you'll lose money and have to spend more time re-sourcing bits to get started again, which you could spend building with what you already have.

Any chance of moving it closer to home? Rented council lock-up garage maybe or a bit of barn space on a farm?
