Hello my name is Squirrel .. and I am addicted to projects! Next project... bigger garage! It started with my first car Mustang II.

I did not have a lot of money so I had to learn to fix stuff on my own. That car always had stuff to fix!!

Then it was a Baja Bug .. same thing .. play .. break .. fix .. play .. break and so on

I blame my Dad he always had a toy he'd be working on. That is my oldest son in the picture sleeping with my stinger exhaust. I am sure he will blame me someday.

Next it was the 72 Olds 442. That is my daughter .. I think she already has the sickness.

Secret Squirrel · 06-02-2010, 08:35 PM

After that it was the Ninja. And Yes that HURT!!!

Secret Squirrel · 06-02-2010, 08:37 PM

Then the 69 SB Fleet

Secret Squirrel · 06-02-2010, 08:41 PM

Next I traded the bike for a 03 Mustang GT. That is my youngest son ... learning about the sickness

Secret Squirrel · 06-02-2010, 08:55 PM

If I spend too much time indoors my wife kicks me out to the garage! I try to stay busy with the kids and projects. Yes that is four kids.

I tell the wife I need one more muscle car so I can give one to each of the kids, but she is not buying that at all!!!

Now I just have the three and I could not be happier. How do I find the time? Cheap labor ... LOL j/k they work for ice cream and that is expensive now

nibs · 06-02-2010, 09:41 PM

Yep, got my fair share...
My 71

My 72 Squareback

91 Chevy Blazer

79 Ironhead Sporty

It would take me two days just to make a list of my projects and then another day to prioritize them.

I agree ... I only listed the cooler of my projects over my short existence on earth. I can't imagine some of the stories you guys have!!!

68GMCCustom · 06-03-2010, 01:37 PM

I've been (half way) looking for one of those!

**Dieselwrencher** · 06-03-2010, 03:09 PM

Nice projects guys! I'm sure my projects will come to a halt when I start having kids so I have to try to get them done before that.

*1sik52* · 06-03-2010, 03:26 PM

You hit the nail on the head. Kids are the most expensive projects you can tackle and you can never get them completed. Also the best projects.
