: What do you do when your done?
p-hanny Mar 18th, 06, 10:14 AM After years of looking all over for the right car total frame off new interior and alot of elbow grease a guy just seems to be DONe with his car right? Well I worked more on the interior getting all the lights and gauges refined and even carpeted the trunk and put in a nice stereo. I tried to get the engine tuned perfect and dress up the engine compartment some. But I havent worked on my car in a month. What do you guys do when you feel like you have done everything you wanted to do? Maybe its time to buy an 871???

surmin69 Mar 18th, 06, 11:13 AM Drive it, show it off, enjoy it for a while, and in no time it will need more work done to it
esponet Mar 18th, 06, 11:31 AM done?? whats that? never heard of such a thing.
chevguy65 Mar 18th, 06, 12:23 PM Never gotten that far, I didn't know being done was ever an option :)
DUKE 69 Mar 18th, 06, 1:26 PM Use it, abuse it, mis-use it and when you have done all that, start over!

novaderrik Mar 18th, 06, 3:07 PM a car is never, ever "done".
there's always SOMETHING you see that you want to change.
could be new wheels, different valve covers and air cleaner, or even- gods forbid- neon green split wire loom under the hood accentuating that purple firewall you've always wanted..
a car is never truly "done", unless it's a 1000 point resto that you are afraid to drive, let alone modify in any way.
Andy69 Mar 18th, 06, 3:29 PM what is this "done" word you speak of?
Chirp08 Mar 18th, 06, 3:48 PM id start exploring some wild ideas, my old boss has a old buick with a 265 aluminum v8 in it, we were talking and hte idea of putting a gnx v6 with a turbo in there, a project like that would be a lot of fun ;)
Think outside of the box and come up with a new project..

136679ss Mar 18th, 06, 4:20 PM As previously stated, drive around the block a few times and come to find out you need to have the engine rebored again, start the whole frame off process all over.:D
Professor_SS Mar 18th, 06, 4:36 PM Buy another car and start over. :D
yep... got another one going, and one waiting in the wings... :thumbsup:
Oh, and BTW.... by next spring it will need something done to it, or you'll have found something wrong with it that you want to change.
sudolg Mar 19th, 06, 7:54 AM Cars are meant to be driven not sittin. Drive it a lot, and then pull it apart again and start over.
68KMENO Mar 19th, 06, 8:59 AM I agree if you drive it ... LIKE it was made to be driven !! it will not be "done" for long ;)
JJ67SS Mar 19th, 06, 12:22 PM Drive it until something breaks - then you can begin again...
