Anyone else get dangerous when they are bored? I am sitting here playing with Bug Selecta wondering what my car would look like with a sunroof and a 3 inch chop. It is probably a good thing my sawzall broke a couple of weeks ago.  Grin

How about you, ever just do something to your car because you were bored?

Just be careful not to drink while you are bored. Then you might end up with a mail order bride arriving on your door step.  Cheesy

I just plan out more cars I'll never build. Which in turn frustrates me because I know I'll never build them, and I know I could do it if I just had the time to finish the ones I'm working on... So much stuff to do that I shouldn't be bored at all!

I tear my car down to fix that little thing thats been niggling me , spend hours doing it , throw a load of cash at it to get it just right  and then find I need to change a whole load of other stuff to get it back together .
