Exactly, I don't have (or want to) the luxury of more than one car.

It's gotta be my DD, my track car, my weekend car, and if I get utterly bored/stupid- show car: in one.

I figure the only stuff I haven't done on a car yet are machine work and body work, and i've had this urge to for years. If I screw up on this, I just have to do it again til i get it right!
