SWMBO has been on the lookout for a new cat (a Manx) for about 1.5 years, and finally found a black and white male last weekend. This now makes 4 cats and 2 dogs...I think we keep the local vet flush with cash and in the 35% income bracket.
When I bought Midlife in 1998, she got a new cat at that time (and three others since!). That was the deal: one cat, one project car. Well, now she's given me authorization to proceed with another project car without selling Mid.
I've always had my eyes on a 64-66 T-Bird, an A/C Cobra, and a late 60's Challenger/Barracuda. Unfortunately, I don't have much space left in the Garage Majal, and no local painter I can trust (including myself). Further, I don't have a lot of bucks to spend, either...
I went looking a while back at a 64 T-Bird, but it was a fairly big project, including an engine build, all for $2500. I just couldn't see myself in another 5 year project. I'm sure there will be something that comes along that I won't be able to pass up.
