April 4, 20187 yr Author comment_546599 Aren't you the one with the time capsule '78? As soon as the post about removing the jute to lighten it up I thought you would have been happier with a 240. That's another very nice Z. Are you gonna keep the 280? I hope you do if you have the garage space, it's money in the bank or gold. They're not making anymore and it'll just increase in value. That 911 will have a dead battery from now on. Congratulations! It's a very nice sickness to be afflicted with. Well trying to decide whether to keep both and no worries if I do I'll be adding the bumpers back on Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/59812-73-240-aquired/?&page=2#findComment-546599 Share on other sites More sharing options...
April 4, 20187 yr comment_546600 Awesome! Congrats. Speaking of wives.... back when I used to make extra cash of any significance I used to just give her a cut. It was easier than dealing with the resentment she had that I had extra money and she didn’t. Even though I made It above and beyond my salary, I couldn’t it escape her resentment. Back when I was in AA my sponsor was like it’s hers and yours, not just yours. He said combined income is combined income. If you don’t want to share it don’t make the extra money. I was like wait I did this above and beyond my salary. I’m not taking from household income. Why can’t she go make extra money too? It was such a hard lesson for me. Honestly, I have no idea why I just typed this! Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/59812-73-240-aquired/?&page=2#findComment-546600 Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 25 years she's used to my "OSD"my wife is a Clinical psychologist .....so yes I've been diagnosed [emoji19]. I don't know how to do thing half arse and I don't have the skill to restore the cars myself so I have a tendency to buy things that cost more $ so I don't have to . You should see my current fly-fishing inventory.... I think I could open my own shop [emoji23][emoji23] pretty sure I can fish the rest of my life without needing to buy any gear what's so ever.

April 4, 20187 yr Author comment_546602 Here's a 57 Ford 300 I picked up at Barrett a few mths back, full rotisserie restoration! It's getting some suspension tunning before the weather gets a little nicer.

April 4, 20187 yr Author comment_546603 I was out looking at houses the other day and happened to see these in back of someone's house .....2 E-type jags just sitting outside in the elements [emoji37] and this 280.
