A collection of one-liners to describe myself and the journey ahead:
I save where I can to spend where I want.
I know a little bit about a lot of things, but I have not mastered any of them.
Son of a mechanic; raised me to know what I could get away with, not was proper/safest.
My father's vice is boats, he also has a Custom Chopper.
He has worked for Mercedes Benz my entire life, so my vehicles were "family time" I hope my kids like my hobby too.
I was encouraged not to make a living turning wrenches, advice that has served me well.
Since relocating many hours north of my family I have been branching out in brands: Honda, Chevy, Mazda, & Dodge so far.
I believe I joined the More Money Than Brains club with the purchase of my wife's 1956 Restomod Chevy pickup.
I have been adapting to annual property tax on our vehicles, as such I have been working on having more fun in cheaper vehicles.
I purchased a MX5 intending to do the LFX swap with it but was asked to do something more practical/safe.
I purchased a 12 valve quad cab to fill the need of a second "family" vehicle & tow rig.
In May of 2020 I purchased a 2010 RX8 to put the already acquired LFX into.
Thanks to COVID-19 I was unable to arrange transport for the shell until mid July.
We live in a community with a HOA I have stayed off their radar even when there were 4 cars in the driveway.
We are looking for land to build our next home, a barndominium we do not like HOA living, crawl spaces, and hardwood floors.
Potentially 50x80 where 50x50 will be living space and 30x50 will be a drive through garage with over-sized doors (boats/RV's: resale)
