I have had a girlfriend for the past four years, we broke up about two weeks ago. I just got my first paycheck since I have been single, and took two grand and spent it on car parts!!!!! and I dont even have to get bitched at for spending all of my money and car parts hahahaha. If I had only thought of this sooner I would be driving my car already. Oh well. Sam
Easier way, FIND A HOT ROD CHICK. Not only am I not given any shit for buying/dragging stuff home,,,,,, the last 4 out of five cars brought home were found and bought by her. Oh, and find one that's bi, that way she points out the other hotties too.
Ha... go back with here when it's time to pay bills, then breakup again when you need some more parts!!!
my wife never complains when i buy something, shes not a hot rod chick & we arent well off.... guess i just got lucky!
Yeah, some people do get lucky. BTW I bought drop spindles, carbs for my 3x2, and new tires and a few other items. oohhh yeah I am a welder, and just cause I spent 2 G's does not mean I can really afford it. Just felt good to spend it on cars instead of more dishes or some other useless stuff. Sam
Same deal here.....45 years ago. Lady went nuts after going together for 3 1/2 years. I sold her engagement ring and bought my first dragster chassis. Whew !!
don't let your wife find out about your girl freind ! keep the car parts at a freinds house and bring it home a little at a time with altered recpts... be cool be cool wipe the smile of your face and don't askthe wife to do those freaky things you did with the ex either she'll get susspiciuos paperdog
Glad to hear your free of that ! I can only wonder in amazment what it would be like to spend even 10 bucks on car stuff and not get a major bitching about what was wrong with the old stuff, can you fix it? Yes dear but to fix it costs money . Got any spare room at the house? I promise I wont buy dishes with the money , hell ill even contribute to the car parts!
I buy cars and strip them for extra cash.If I buy a car for $100.00 and make $500.00 profit my wife bitches about me spending the original $100.00 What the fuck is up with womens logic????? I guess its okay to buy a $100.00 dress she will never wear though.... You are the lucky one!
Just a girlfriend? ALWAYS keep your money separate! as long as both people contribute equally to the household stuff, there are no arguments about money.
This was EXACTLY the situation I used to be in!! Can't say how many smokin' deals I had to pass up because of the shit I'd get. Ah, the good old days...
See, ya got to get'em young, break them in on Hotords and race cars, when ya been married 28 years then she still knows no difference, thinks Hotrods and parts are the normal, all She wants to know is when can she go cruizin with me in the new Hotrod
Learn from women and use the same BS stories they do. New? I've had that for years. It was on sale - I saved a lot of money buying it. It's not for me, it's for the house. I just wanted to look nice for you.
As I often tell criticizers of my hot rod spending habits... "You can sleep in your car but you can't race your house!" No one usually has a response to that! Congratulations on getting out of your rut. If she was just your gf and complained about cars and parts that much imagine if you would have made her your wife!
Shit I don't know how to figure this crap out!!! She digs the shows and hangin out...She didn't complain when I built my dream garage....Then she bought a car of her own, a 63 Falcon post. The damn Falcon hasn't left the garage unless I drive it and she has only been back to the garage twice since I finished it....almost a year now! She doesn't complain about the money though; So I guess I shouldn't ask anymore questions!!!!
That's cool but I don't think I'd like to sleep in a car with the weather we've been having in the midwest lately!
