I bought a 56 Chev 2door sedan in 1977.  I did some work on it, bought some stuff, parked it at the family farm in 1983 or so, used a chainsaw to retrieve it and move it to a friends farm when ours was sold in 1998 or so.  This past weekend, I used a chainsaw to retrieve it again, and delivered it, a parts car and all the stuff I've stored forever to the new owner.  40 years from great hopes to realizing I don't have enough life left to finish all my junk.

 

I'm pretty sure he will treat it better than I ever did, plus I delivered it on his birthday.

Now, buy something done. No work needed, and live out the rest of your days driving  that car how you would have With the '56.

I have a lifetime of projects already.  67 Camaro, 510 Datsun, 54 Dodge Coronet 2 door wagon, two Integra Chumpcars, a Neon IT racer and a Neon Ministock.

 

Plus, there are the complete ones- SR20 B13 Sentra, SRT4 powered RT Neon, and my 82 Z28...

 

EDIT:  I just laughed a bit- the race cars are complete, but they are actually project cars for their whole career, aren't they?
