Motivate You

What does it take to get you started on a project youve been neglecting for whatever reason ? We were out running errands yesterday and stopped by an auto parts store and when I came out there was a nice work in progress 79 Firebird sitting in the parking lot. I gave Joan the truck key and told her I was going to check it out and the owner came out and we talked for 30 minutes about his Firebird and Joans 81 Trans Am .He told me he had owned his a long time and had just pulled it out of storage to freshen it up and play with it .So today I decided to tinker on Joans and actually got it running great in no time at all. Now I need a new battery and a new set of tires before I can start driving it some .It may even become my daily driver until my truck comes home from the bodyshop at Joan's urging.

man i have not touched my chevelle in i am going to say a month now! i am at the point where i dont know what to do so i just leave it alone for now. I want to get working on it again i just dont know what to do anymore. I think i am going to continue with my theme of finish the rear so i can put the tires back on the ground. but at least one good thing. I have saved my money and have not spent any of it so i do have money for parts again..lol

What gets me motivated?

Buying parts to put on it or materials to use on it. Since money's been tight, the poor girl just sits there waiting patiently.
