Other than my boat I have a 66 El Camino, Although It has sat dormant lately because I dont have enough time for it :mad: . Ive got pretty much everything needed to put it back together, I just need to finish taking it apart! I am also into RC trucks. Just got this about two and a half weeks ago.

My bro and I have 64 & 65 chevelles. We've got tons of ideas, but not the funds to match right now, with my teacher's salary, new F-250, boat, price of living in San Diego.
Here is a pic of the 64, we originally got it for our 16 birthday 11 years ago. It's already had 3 paint jobs, 4 sets of rims & tires, 3 motors, a couple trannies. Now we are going to strip it down and start over again from the frame up. When we are done it will be air bagged, he does upholstery so that's going to be pretty tricked out. He's currently welding in new rear quarter panels.
Accidently, I somehow posted this reply on another thread, is it possible to delete it, if so can someone tell me how. Thanks

Are you sure about that.I go to glamis also but a new ride cost about 5k and up depending on which fast bike quad you decide to go with(Xs by how big your family is),plus the toybox,tow vehicle,and the newly increased user fees popping up all over :mad:

Uhhh, yes.
I race model boats, (well, not lately) performance tunnel hulls. They have become somewhat of a project, trying to keep up with next guy, you know....
A house. This is one project that, like my boat, never ends....
As far as other hobbies, during the winter months its the desert, on an XR650R, kid rides a TRX250ex.
When time is abundant I also like to sling a little paint...(paintball) For that I shoot a modified Autococker STO and a modified Spyder Shutter as a backup.
But, mostly the boat is the primary project.

It's not really a project. Its an original paint unrestored 69 4 speed Judge with 49,000 miles on the clock. It still has the original running gear, interior, radio, mufflers and tailpipes and some original assembly line markings. It shows about a years worth of wear. Sometimes I get the urge to take it apart and restore it, but a car can only be original once.
