Building on a budget.
If you’re a gearhead like me, (I’m assuming you are if you’ve been unfortunate enough to stumble upon my blog), then you’ve dreamed of piecing together a wicked project.
Some of you may be well on your way. Others may still be in the first stages, deciding on what you want to start with, and now you’re scouring craigslist for the right example. Others still may have the vehicle in the garage, completed, torn down, or somewhere in between. An old 4-wheel drive Bronco for hitting the trails, a ratty stripped down Miata for a weekend warrior at the autocross. Different strokes
To those who are pouring the time and resources (especially money!) into making that dream project a driving reality, I salute you. For those in the beginning stages. I salute you too.
As you’ve seen, I have two projects of my own. A little 5-speed Focus I’d like to make into a daily driving weekend auto crosser. And a little Isuzu.... that I still haven’t figured out yet.
But I say be patient. It can be a long long road. It’s been cold. I don’t have a garage to work in, so when winter comes, I bunker in and the projects take a rest. I’ve also been broke. But today was strangely warm out. I took the wheels off the little Focus, checked the brakes, and painted the tire lettering. And, it felt pretty good.
One thing at a time.
Keep on wrenching my friends :)
Haha
I think I'm going to put some beauty rings on my focus haha, humor...
