30 years of blood sweat and tears to get here and the last 10 years of 80-90 hour workweeks. Some people have retirement and savings, I decided why not enjoy my money by being able to drive and enjoy it and sell if the money is right(except for my Cobra and my wife's hot rod, those are permanent)
My Eleanor isn't perfect but with a little extra work I have less than 1/2 what it would cost to build to replicate it. I have from one extreme to another in that I just finished a 1969 Triumph GT6 that I had one as my first car with all of 120 hp and weighs just 1500 pounds.
I have a very understanding wife
I have 5 grandkids and my kids are both car nuts but they are fighting over the Eleanor more than the Cobra when it comes to going for a ride
