Here is the situation.
We have the wife's Creamsicle and the husband's 914 turbo. The creamsicle needs complete restoration. The husband states the turbo, even though already a beautiful 914, needs some things to make it roadworthy. Of course, some of the things are cosmetic and really don't pertain to its driving ability. Here is the issue. The wife has been buying things for the LE, such as a '74 parts car with near perfect interior parts. The husband started going through the parts car, and was pulling things off saying "I can use that for my car". The wife ordered a spoiler for her LE, and the husband said "I can use that for my car since the DAPO ran over something and broke the spoiler on mine". Vote: Whose 914 should be first priority?

MY HUBBY WINS!!!!
This was a great thread! And yes Gint, the entertainment factor was hilarious! But my hubby just took me on a great weekend get-a-way, and he was just amazing. I know how much his turbo means to him, and since I am still bonding with my creamsicle, I have conceded. I want him to have the best 2008 ever! And that means having his turbo completed and ready by Christmas. All of you gave some great comments. Look for my thread next year on my LE restoration!

Maybe a 12 step program or something (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) |
