Dude I don't get it. You spend years building up this car to what trade it off. Why, i understood when you said you had to get rid of i to get a reliable dd but now you are just going to trade it off for another toy. It doesn't make much sense. JMO

^^^I don't want to even guess how much money I have tossed away in the car hobby, well into the 6 figures at least.

up until now and at this point I am done giving mine away. If I buy new I am keeping the old one, I don't care if it sits

Well, the past few years it has been more of a pain than a joy. The car has gotten to a point where it needs a full cage and a standalone computer. I'm just not feeling up to it anymore, I just want a new hobby.

As do I. If it's not fun anymore it's not worth it. Hobbies are NOT supposed to be stressful.

I personally would never give up my project like the stealthstang. I would hate myself, store it Scones or make it N.A again and enjoy it
