If enthusiasm, talent, and funding trajectories all crossed at a lower point on the graph these unstarted or partially completed dreams would be done and on the road. Because they seldom cross at all, here's a snapshot of folks hitting the eject button on their dreams in October of 2015:
This is especially ambitious - Corvette Apache truck mashup!
Along the same lines, another ambitious re-body with Mercedes 4WD SUV underpinnings:
Austin Healey Sprites - ripe for engine swaps:
240 Z that's been "Swamped"
V6 Spitfire: Will trade for blower manifold
"This is a complete vehicle"
"It's a project car I started so someone has to finish it." That may be a tad optimistic.
Look closely, that's a Willys Wagon. Also, seller only has 30 years to live.
I AM NOT SPENDING TIME IN PRISON FOR $300.
Dude flaked. When the temporary registration ran out I parked it in my backyard. That was 10 years ago.
"Oil in the coolant, but no water in the oil." Famous last words...
How many projects are trapped in Rescue California?
The official Post Card for Lake County?
Replica body, Jaguar rear end loosely tacked into place, Maserati Mexico engine, low, low price.
d
"Wife hates this truck and wants it gone."
The Dream can no longer follow me," and "I want to save you from a big fight with your significant other"
Is this really in San Francisco?
From the professional project finders: Note the trillion dollar inventory on racks in the background.
This seems like a decent idea:
Taking the Baja theme to more of an extreme:
"Would make a cool 4X4" Perhaps there's a Vega on a Land Cruiser Chassis in this seller's future?
The lean-sale race car:
Toyota Supra taillights!
The first Ecurie Ecrappe LeMons race car was almost a Porsche 924- the copper car below:
Obviously the well hasn't dried up:
Is it true that British cars fall into project status more easily than others?
"Bought it two years ago to keep busy." (Apparenty electrical and lights aren't classified as busy work.)
A rare opportunity to build an early 911for less than a small fortune. Hmmm.
Start here with an even smaller fortune than the early 911 above:
Now you're talking.... but watch out this car has been posted in a lot of 'stated'.
Sorry bought this car and didn't finish, then posted and ad, but flaked on that too, but now I'm ready.
Electric Dumball Rally here we come:
Common project phraseology: Ran when parked.
"I ran when parked." (And only recently returned to find my Duster turning to dust.)
"Please don't ZZ-Top me!
"If you're serious, I might give you a discount"
Rarer than an early 911....
Lost the drive to complete this one...
Where's the barn?
Turning a negative into a positive: Nose dent adds character!
More positives: What's left of the interior is still in good shape
"For all your tire burning needs"
"Put battery on, fired right up."
Only needs fuel pump...
Three completes, but missing some stuff.
