Never done
Had my current bike for years, change this, change that, work on it, and change something else. Originally figured I'd paint and polish it and call it good, shows what I know! Start out with a picture in my head, then halfway to realization, decide it would look better this way so, halfway there.....
My old mustang, I had it for about 14 years, never 'finished' it, 3 different engines, 4 transmissions, 3 different interiors, 2 axles, three different sets of gears, and 6 different colors. It was driveable and kicked butt all the time I owned it, but always had something else I wanted to try with it. Get it all painted, drive it, then look at it and say, you know, it would look real sweet with a set of split chrome bumpers like a 63 vette, and I bet I could do something with the tail lights too....
Bought an old lathe that needed some work on it, got it all running good and turning true, then traded it off on another lathe that needed work on it, now I have 3 lathes and two mills in the garage and whenever I think of making room for more junk, I mean projects, it's always the finished stuff I think about trading off.
My friends all say I like the project more than the finished product, and in truth, I think they're onto something, I mean for the time, effort and money I put into my projects I could buuy new and be ahead, but it wouldn't be the same.
