  There's a big difference between mostly done and all done. Mostly done is slightly un-done.

And "slightly un-done" is within sight of "Sorta good to go!".  Ahhh the lies we tell ourselves about our cars.

thank you. this is getting a resto after i get done with the z car

Resto? It's perfect! You just need a little dirt on that alternator. Please don't tell me you are going to wreck it with show paint and comfortable interior.

my neighbor (old guy constantly puttering in his yard) is always asking when i'm gonna be done working on my car (and yes, there's a sense of sarcasm in his voice). he always shakes his head when i reply "never, i hope!" fact is, if i wanted a car that i was "done with" i'd buy a camry. other fact is, when i do something on the car, it STAYS done - unlike his yard work ;}

Hey rossiz, does your neighbor drive a camry?

I do, or rather it drives me.  Gas and oil, that's it.  Can't hear the motor, can talk on the phone (speaker phone of course) freeze the windows over from the inside and about 80% of the red light stops there's one just like it.  I hate it and love it both. 

exactly. there's a reason there are so many on the road - it just does it all effortlessly and engages neither the senses of the driver nor those around it. perfect getaway vehicle!
