    Fiancé makes me say bye bye foxbody:(

    Well guys this could be one of the hardest things I'll ever have to but its time to say bye-bye to my 88 fox body mustang. I'm getting married soon an the fiancé says I just have to many hobbies. Wich I do have alot of toys like my 86 tri-z I just brought . I also have a few guns one really nice Kimber cdp and the mustang so something has to go. I guess it's for the best because I really don't have time for it any more because I'm always working on everyone else's car. Never ever let people know you work on cars for a living. It's just a bummer seeing what I know I have over 8000 in got for alot less. but hey now I can work on the resto of my tri-z! I'll post pics of the car later. Anyone else run into this kinda thing?

    The car, the gun and the trike are paid for. A wife is never paid for. And if you're really lucky, she'll clean you out one day while you are at work and then divorce you for half. Make sure you know what you are doing. best of luck.
    Marriage=Legalized Prostitution! At least with a hooker, you know what you are getting. You'll have plenty of times in your married future when you will pay way more than it's worth and get no nookie or to sleep on the couch in your own house. Two words my friend

    Aye, a good lass will be understanding of your hobbies. Your hobbies and interests are what make you, you, and if she doesn't agree to what makes you, you, then she wouldn't be the lass for me if I was in your shoes.

    Is she asking you to get rid of em, or TELLING you to? Big difference there.
    This is my trike. There are many like it but this one is mine. My trike is my best friend, and it is my life. I must master it as I must master myself. My trike without me is useless. Without my trike, I am useless. I must ride my trike true. My trike and I know that what counts is not the amount of miles we ride, but the time we ride together. My trike is human in it's own ways, therefore I will learn it as my brother. I will learn it's weaknesses, it's strengths, it's parts, and it's soul.

    Sounds to me like, Happy wife=no toys. I've been married for 16 years and have a happy wife and lots of toys.

    Haha def doing a prenup and no joint bank account. She has student loans and I'm not paying for that s***! I didnt choose to go back to school. And I think what she wants mos is a house . Right now we rent a place. And she is cool with most of my toys I think she's just asking me if I really have te time or money to mess with it anymore or would I rather invest it into one o my other hobbies. Building a car like that is frustrating at least for me. I suppose I'm a perfectonis but I feel like it will never be 100% done there's always this little thing or that.

    I feel for ya man! Foxes are my favorite, had 2. An 84 and an 85 (love the quad headlights) My fav was my second one, t-tops, tremec tko 5speed and a 347 dart block with trick flow heads, eddie performer air gap, and a demon 850. That thing was a corvette killer. I had 273 airplane gears, so my launch was never that great, but when I hit 3rd, LOOK OUT. Only car I ever owned I could smoke a little in 4th. Alas though a girl didn't make me give her up, being 21 and bar hopin all the time did (thank God for 5 point harnesses). The roll cage helped too.
    It's amazing how young and stupid we can be (well I was), just glad I never killed anyone. To all you younger generations PLEASE DONT DRINK AND DRIVE!. It ain't worth it
    Now I'm happy with dirt and a nice jacked up truck.
    Hey Skid, at least you don't gotta wash it everyday, black is a pain. But they sure do look mint after that wash and wax.

    Doesn't matter if she's asking you or telling you - tell her no. Draw the line in the sand now.

    I've been married nearly 20 years. If she's not even your wife yet and already telling you what interests to have and what toys to play with, it will only get worse. It will always be a point of contention.

    Pre nup? No joint accounts? Not sharing the bils? Quit foolin' yourself - you're not ready to get married - at least not to her. If there's no kids involved, you're making a mistake.

    Time to ask yourself some tough questions.
