Not entirely sure what I want to do right now. The idea has been hanging around in my head for about a year. Decisions......

I have not driven it in prob five or six years. It just sits there. Sank so much money into it too. Kinda bums me out to see it. I don't NEED the money, but it wouldn't hurt either. Just life has been on a slow decline for a while. Also been playing with selling my house, leaving CT and setting up down south. It has gotten so expensive the past couple years here it's like they don't want anyone here. I don't really know.

Moving away and/or letting something sit for too long are valid reasons. Sounds like you are bummed out on making some important decisions, man.

Mine's been on jackstands for over a year now. >_<

It's the CSM curse, you get one, you dump money into it, it's badass, something breaks, it sits forever.

Mines been sitting for over a year. It was not broken when I parked either. Having a CSM makes for an interesting set of circumstances. I'm not compelled to sell mine; probably because in it current state it's not worth much and there not too much interest in these cars locally.

Yeah, thats what makes me so attached to it. Their really is nothing like it. Turbo Honda's will always just be turbo Honda's. But then you 63 a CSM, it becomes something else. Very hard to find that feeling in other things.

There are a few cars I want to pick up. I have had a hard on for an mk3 Supra or a S13 coupe with an RB26 swap. I also what to pick up a P38 Range Rover. I have the space but at what point does it become hoarding? Living in the suburbs by myself with six cars? I have had city zoning come out because one of my neighbors complained that I "have too many cars for one person." All registered so fruit and banana him, my property. I'm just not sure what direction I want to take.

People are just assholes anymore. One of my employees told me yesterday that his neighbor called the cops on him because he was repairing a wall outside of his house and didn't have a building permit. She threw this huge fit about the whole thing and even got the county constable involved. The constable laughed in her face and told her that you don't need a permit unless you are building something new. You don't need a permit for rebuilding something that was already there in the first place. I have good neighbors except for the old lady that lives right next to me but she doesn't bother me too much anymore. She's certainly never called the cops on me.

Decided to stick around for another year and reevaluate my feelings then. So I am fixing everything on my Infiniti, selling the Honda and then going to put the Mirage back together.

Got moved down here. Living in the middle of no where is great. If I don't want to see anyone when I wake up, I don't have to. I know of one drag track down in Aiken. I am about an hour twenty from there. Maybe someone knows something closer? I am in McCormick.
