Well It’s a bittersweet day, but I ended up selling the car today. Sometimes life throws you some curves. I ended up splitting up with my wife about 15 months ago and the reality is I didn’t know when I’d be in a position to work on the car again, so I made the choice to sell it. I can use the cash a lot more than I can a car that’s just collecting dust. So once I am able to buy a new house with a shop, I will get another one. But until then, I plan on enjoying life and working my ass off at work to buy that house. I’ve also cancelled photobucket so the photo unfortunately will disappear lol. Thanks everyone for all the views and comments.

Bummer Mike, sorry to hear that, but I completely understand, I'm in the same boat here!

I feel for you as I know how much we all enjoy working on our cars and sharing what we do with other members here. The cat is only a thing but the friendship we make on these sites is what really matters. If you want I can host all your pictures on GarageScene for you and all you would have to do is relink them.

Sometimes things happen in our lives that we can’t understand at that moment. I divorced my first wife years ago. Married my current wife 20+ years ago and now I have two beautiful daughters, a very small dog and a wonderful wife and a really nice garage.

I’m not sure my life with my first wife would be anything like the life I have now. I thankful for the way my life has turned out.

Good luck to you, Mike. Life isn't always easy. I think the greatest thing about it is every day is a new day to start again.
