COE project creep

I was just reading a thread on the main HAMB board about buying a project with the intention of a quick rebuild.....never seems to work for me
My COE has gone WAY further than that now, and my Valiant is now getting new paint and upholstery and most mechanicals.......
Ill bet its more common than we all care to admit

 

I stated in that thread that for me, it isn't creep, it's more like full gallop!

 

Yeah, my '52 F-1 PU build kinda got out of control.....learned my lesson(kinda).
The COE build was more of a "quick&dirty" build, and a lot more fun!

 

My model a Tudor was a quick build . The COE not so much . Overthinking everything . Soon as I finish the wife’s Airstream,February?, it will all out to finish the hauler . Blue

 

we never learn

 

we never learn.....on top of my COE and Valiant I'm currently trying to do a deal for a Moto Guzzi, I've wanted one for years and my current GS1150 BMW is getting just a little to big for me......

 

You have to expect project creep on these trucks. As someone said COE stands for "Completely Over Engineered"

 

"Compulsively Over Engineered"

 

Completely compulsively........lol perfect descriptions
