Well, I'm only 21. Ok, I'll be 21 in a month...BUT. I have to make my monthly payment on the Focus, pay the insurance and gas on the focus, pay whatever I charge on my credit card and pay for all of my other expenses. I also am a full time student and just dropped almost 2k in books and tuition for this semester. I have 3 student loans from when I was attending the University of Tampa, but they are going to be deferred now that I'm back in school. That is why I still haven't even done the basic mods to the focus, nor have I gotten decent autoXing tires. This is also why my 2 engines for my '73 Dart are sitting in the same place they have been for over a year and why my dart hasn't moved in over a year. I would love to build a 408 stroker out of my 360 and top it off with a set of Indy's new SB Chrysler heads. That combo, w/ a single 1050 carb produces 670 horses w/ 12.5:1 pistons. I have the complete plans for the buildup based upon a build up and dyno flog I read. Unfortunately, The dart sits in my father's friend's yard in Riverview (parent's won't let me keep it at home) and I haven't seen it in so long. It's 100% rust free body might be ravaged by cancer at this point. I don't know, I hope not. I wish I had some place to keep it, but I don't. I wish I could put the engine together, but I can't. I don't like any of that but it's what I have to do. Life's a bitch. I don't know what to tell you, Mike....just remember...hardships/oppurtunities can come and go...and hind sight is 20/20. Don't jump on a whim and then regret it down the road.
