So who else has gotten into trouble

I don't say nothin about the crap she brings home and she don't say nothin about the crap I bring home. maybe that will end us up in the poor house, but it will be a fun ride.

 

The very funny man of car 54 fame. The late Nipsie Russell said something like this "I am not married because I can barely live with myself"

 

I used to have this problem. I came home with a car several years ago and caught a major load of shit over it. I went out to the garage and drug in the piece of excercise equipment she just had to have a few months ago. You know, the one that was used about a week before it became a high price clothes rack. This thing costs more than the car I bought. I told her that I would probably ride the car before she rode that excercise deal. It was very cold for a day or two, but I've never heard that again.

 

Don't ya hate it when they're so right about stuff like that, too!

We've been married 17 years.
On our first anniversary i bought her a diamond and ruby broach.
She took one look at it and said "That's nice... But I'd rather have an angle grinder!"

 

And whats the downside?

 

My ex-girlfriend always used to bitch that I'd complain about not having enough money to take her out EVERY night of the week because I'd spend some money on parts. She never quite understood that it wasn't that I didn't HAVE the money, I just didn't think she was WORTH spending all of my money on.

Finally I got tired of her shit and dumped her crazy ass. That same week I thought about how much money I just saved and treated myself to some '58 Edsel wagon taillights. Suddenly I felt much better about my life.

 

Mine doesn't complain anymore since the parts I'm buying are for HER car now . Of course once it is done and I start on another one for me it'll prolly start up again.

Dude,

Your mom gave up years ago. I think it was about 1988 when she was 10 months pregnant (with you) and me & your Dad drug her to the Nationals to sit in the swap meet for 4 days in 100 degree heat.

On the up side, we did sell a steel '32 3 window body for 5 grand that weekend.

She never had a chance.

I could spend hours telling stories about fucking with my ex and her lawyer, like eating $20.00 worth of booger king onion rings and a six pack of ballentine beer the night before the master's hearing, I was farting so bad they were all gagging, but it sure speeded things up! <grin>

 

When in doubt, buy the car (or part, or part of a car), sure you'll catch hell but when she finally forgives you, you still got the car.

 

I know some good tricks to hide thing's from mama!!

Actually Tman fucks up when he calls and the wife answers the phone

the wife " Hi Trent how's it going?"

Tman " Great Dave was in the shop today and ordered all kinds of stuff"

The other day I came home and the wife sees my face and says "what`s up?" well ,I just bought a 52 chevy...she freeks out till I tel her it was only $200. Oh. O.K. By the way way we`ve been married twice..4 years the first time..divorced 2 years..married again..it will be a Lifetime movie for sure

 

I had a buddy who saw a divorce coming a few years out. He scattered his big block '69 Corvette roadster all over the southeast. Far as anyone (including his wife) knew they needed $$ and he had sold it off piece by piece. The divorce came and she got damn near everything.

I was blown away when, a few years after the divorce, he collected all his parts and reassembled it.

I had always thought he was borderline brilliant, after that stunt, I was certain. I also learned how patient the guy was.

Hahaha!. Not me.....

No wife(anymore) + no kids = lotsa junk at my garage

The two chicks I've been ....uhh....seeing... think my car/parts addiction is "cute"

I hope they never find out about each other

 

That's the only damn thing "cute" about you for sure.

Those poor women.

...Do you know any Tyra's???

I rent a barn about 2 miles away from the house... I work 1.25 miles from home, I intercept most of the boxes at lunchtime.

She's a good sport though, we even scheduled a trip to Detroit and made side trips on the way up to pick up car parts, we're going to the Roundup next year, and she wants to go to Hershey...

She did find out about the 2nd car (the '52 Ford, only $400 and you can take it home), and wasn't too happy about it. She doesn't even know what year the 3rd car is...

 

That's great............because you got rid of her ....before you were married to her.........KEEP LOOKING .........they are some good ones out there.....

 

Brandy's single right?

I can't even mention car parts to my wife. Every car part I have ever bought that I discussed with her I caught hell. So I don't discuss My habits are a hell of a lot cheaper than hers. We discussed a budget for furniture for the living room. Then she went "looking" with her mother. Good lord... does a $9,000.00 oriental rug for only $3000.00 sound like a f-ing good deal to you?

 

My Wife rules,when I met her she had built the car she was driving.Love at first sight.

 

My wife was understanding & helped tow home my 49 Chevy 4 dr & the 50 Chevy 2 dr & the 51 Chevy 4 dr. However - when I told her about a guy that had a 49 Chevy 4 dr Fleetline + a 50 Chevy 4 dr Fleetline she said do you really need another "one". I told her well yes, anyway the guy made me a great deal so I bought "two". Wife was a little edgy & started in again that I needed to sell the 68 Ford pickup that just sits out in the weeds. Well....I did in fact agree & one day this truck rolls in and drops off a 50 Chevy 2 dr and loads up the 68 Ford pickup. She was amazed! I told her I did as she asked - the truck was now gone! Then she wanted to know how much I had spent. I said nothing, it was a trade. She just did'nt know what to say about that. Gary 4T950 Chevy Guy

 

yur a sick, twisted and demented man,,, but i like that kinda attitude

 

My girlfriend would bitch about it all-The amount of time I spent at the shop, the money I spent on the car, blah blah blah. Now she's my EX-girlfriend, and my car is almost done. The only time I miss her is late at night
