Project Car Blues? I Have the Solution!

[@richsmith6952]

My mom dated a guy when I was 12 in California who drove an MGA. He took me for a ride in it and I was hooked on sports cars! Now days I am more of a 57 Chevy guy so I totally get how tempting that “other” car is sitting right there. Great progress and advice! Thanks for sharing! ❤️😎

@richsmith6952 Thanks Rich! My older step brother would build model cars when he was over on weekends when I was very little. I was amazed by cool cars forever! Glad your watching buddy!

GORGEOUS Mike!!! Very NICE work sir! So sorry about your friends health and him having to sell his project. Yes, keeping motivated can certainly be a challenge at times. Thanks for an awesome video!

[@junksautomotive]

@@greggsvintageworkshop8974 Thanks Gregg! It's a battle all of its own! I did get your email. Sweet Bug!!

Your videos are partly a lesson in how to fix cars , partly a lesson in how to get on with life. I quite often flick fwd when watching a Utube car repair video. He cuts it , he welds it, etc etc....with your videos I can't do that. I miss too much of your philosophy that comes out during the fixing/repairing. Thanks for sharing those ideas and thoughts with us. Just out of interest, I owned an MGA way back in 1978. Sold it unfinished .

[@junksautomotive]

@Hazzy238 Hi Hazzy! I've sold a few projects when I was young unfinished! I try to make my videos different. Humor and showing how I feel about things just seems right! I'm glad your watching buddy! Cheers!

It is nice to see you put a plan together and worked it out. It looks great. What I do, when I hit the stumbling blocks. I work on a different project. A different car or home project. That gives me time to look at it with fresh eyes and put a new plan together. I hate to hear when someone has to sell there projects over health issues.

@wayneheikkila9930 Thanks Wayne! Everyone is different. So long as your good to yourself and get back at it and have fun! Thats what matters! Have an awesome week buddy!

[@andrewhelgeson4885]

Old car 'blues' - yes, it is a thing - Took me too many years to do my MG-B. now, I don't really want to get started on my next (that I already own) car. I may send you an email with my info, but going to say - you are doing a great job on the MG-A.

[@junksautomotive]

@@andrewhelgeson4885 Hi Andrew, yes Sr! Send away! Tell me whatever story you'd like to go along with the project you want to include. The story makes project better i think! Thanks for the kind words on the MG A. I'm ready to get it done! Hope to hear from you again soon and you have an awesome week!!

[@anviltech1839]

[@RetrogradeThinker]

Looking at the teaser thumbnail, I thought you were going to do a smokey exhibition acceleration out on the road. 😆

[@junksautomotive]

@@RetrogradeThinker Ha! You got my cross referring thumbnail strategy! 😁 Glad you checked it out anyhow. Real burn outs before to long hopefully! Have a good sunday Retro!

[@frankxerri1564]

Project car blues Start cleaning up the workshop and you soon find something to do on your project, it’s normally more interesting than cleaning up and you feel better about the project once you have accomplished something on it no matter how small Cheers Frank

[@junksautomotive]

@frankxerri1564 I agree Frank! Oh I need to clean my shop for sure! Cheers!!

[@raymondclough3776]

I get the blues or burnouts all the time! My wife tells me I have too many projects and never finish them! That’s how I get over the blues! Just move to the next one! The Judge said!”Happy days Jerry “

[@Zazu2You]

If I didn’t know you shaved off your beard and closed my eyes I wouldn’t have known anything was different. It was quite a big change, for sure. Cheers!! 😳

[@junksautomotive]

@@Zazu2You I'll be growing the beard right back Zazu! 😉 Just not myself without it! Thanks for checking it out buddy! Have an awesome week!

[@rongamble9884]

I don't know if you have tried it but there is a compound I use a little cheaper than 3M works very well made by Wizards

[@junksautomotive]

@rongamble9884 No sure haven't Ron, but heck you know me. I'll try anything! We'll as far as car stuff anyway 😅

[@rongamble9884]

@junksautomotive I was using 3M but they keep driving the cost up and I got my local paint store to start caring wizards you can buy it online also
