^ WTF!
What kind of obsession are we looking at here?
No wonder you're apparently undaunted by any task. It does however appear that maybe you're afraid to actually complete something.

LOL well when life throws you epic earth shattering curve balls some things get mothballed for long periods

"most" of the bikes are good to go and or are finished..or ever evolving projects like my 83 xl600r, last 2 big steps on it will be a full dissasembly and re-paint and to lace me up a new 18inch rear

the shelf is old pics, the audis are gone, the celica and alfa alfetta next to it are both in perfect working order, and TBH theres nothing i want to do to the alfetta, so it is done, the celica will eventualy get new seat skins and paint but its low priotity

as far as my lloyd in the shop goes..well...thats a project thats snowballed and evolved over the years..and is smaller than the yaris and lighter
1800lbs and can park on a 4x8 sheet of plywood..the "new" alfa 3.7 mill going in is around 400hp..the "body" is heavily hand modified sitting on whats left of an 87 alfa milano platinum chassis that was shortened 28 inches and then cut down...WAY DOWN. after some life changes and storage time i found some chassis flex i didnt like so im slowly caging it....she gets all my "extra" time when i can afford to spare it...

i do have ALOT of projects, but..most of em run and drive so i can enjoy em "if" i have time...times been epicly thin

since mom passed last year things have been completely changed after taking care of her for 33 years......


in all fairness the "lloyd" could fill a forum with pages of pics..its an undertaking of epic levels the initial project got scrapped back down to just the body shell when an alfa fell in my lap as a doner, and being a car that well..almost doesnt exist i have to find or make things fit..so...hood from a 54 chevy cut n butchered to fit, headlight buckets from a xj6, tail light lenses from a 60s tbird inner panel, milano chassis alfa race engine, alfa transaxle, jdm van seats, 54 ford speedo, hand fabbed console, 58 ford dash chunks, 8 inches of hand fabbed wide body, hand fabbed rolled pans, 58 ford grill, neon shifter, howe and afco pedal assy, tilton masters, yaris heater/ac, ferarri 358? exhaust tips and muffler box, bear claw latches, 70s caddy power door locks, 74 xj6 inner door handles...and miles of welding and hand fab work
