I am sure I have already posted this but I am going to do it again:

Sneak up on the wife. First I bought a Transmission and just let it sit around a couple of weeks. Then I bought an engine and told the wife I was just going to put together the engine for some project in the future. I was immediately threatened with my life if I got grease everywhere. I was extremely carefull and never got grease anywhere (garage, walls, floor, and mostly her carpet). Tore the old engine down and sent everything to the machine shop.

Then we started taking "Road Trips" in the vacinity of Cobra Builders (Shelby, Shell Valley, MidStates, B&B, Lone Star, A&C, Street Beast).
Once we agreed on who WE thought offered the best car value for the money (B&B in my opinion at the time). I told my wife I was taking a deposit to Bryan. That was exactly five years ago and we both enjoy the Cobra, so far so good. Did I mention I my wife and I had a new house built last year! Just like she always wanted (I got my garage for the Cobra). Trade-offs, it's all about trade-offs.
