Just bought it, so every week I add on one more mod/maintenance item to make sure it runs strong. It's my new DD... and it is so much fun

I have 2 and one is "driving". This weekend it blew part of its muffler off....add it to that list. The other is in pieces. I do my best to work on either at least once a week.

Probably about 5 days out of the week. Usually an hour or two at night. Weekend mornings for a couple hours. I really don't watch tv or play videogames like a normal 19 year old so I have a lot of time to put toward my builds.
I basically did a complete tear down of a 318is, all the way to the shell and put it all back together in a little under 9 months.
You can really get shit done if you have the drive and money

I'm always doing something to it at least once a week, but its mostly tinkering or messing around with it, maybe once a weekend every month I'll actually do something it needs. That being said over the summer I was working on it every day, but I was doing a mini restoration.My Garage

Since I got diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis, I have lost a ton of motivation. Every time I do anything physical, my freaking bones ache like hell for days. Sucks. Waffles. Etc.Si vis pacem, para bellum.
