Perley it is always hard to let things go. My 48 has sat in the garage for over 6 years since my divorce. Catching up on home repairs and savings for retirement have left me with little to no time other than keeping the gas cycled and running it in garage when I get the time. I have agonized over whether I'll ever get back to it and if I should sell it to allow someone else to complete it. Covid and work has made me more aware of all the half done or otherwise waiting projects that may never get done here. During a deep funk I came very close to selling it. In the end I literally have most everything to finish it to a legal road worthy truck again and decided to finish some high priority stuff then do work on getting truck back together. The things that don't need to be done to reach that point will just have to wait. My hope is to retire in the next 7 years and then be able to focus on it and some woodworking projects. So for now I do what I can when I can, but I understand where your coming from and I feel there will be a time where I have to make the same decision as you and only hope someone who gets the truck will either complete it or keep it functional vs abandon it!"

Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
How did you get hooked on cars?
