Default How often....

...do you just get to sit in the garage and look at your car because there is nothing left to fix. Today is one of those days.... life is good :-)

That's a great looking coupe ya have there Iceaxe.

I make sure I have mine on the road a few times a week, but I hear ya, because I get just as much enjoyment out of tinkering with it in the garage and cleaning it as I do driving it.

Have a great weekend.

If you have nothing to fix you're not looking hard enough!

I think he meant there is nothing that NEEDED fixing...

At that moment, the car NEEDED to be admired.

A tough project is like eating an elephant. You take it one bite at a time and eventually you're plate will be empty, or you have friends over for lots of BBQs.

As much progress as I've made on my silver anniversary in the 6 weeks I've had it, It's still tough to imagine getting to the point where there isn't anything left to fix, lol !

Beautiful car! Maybe someday I'll be able to get a chrome bumper and it wont need anything fixed.
