My current project (an Allis B tractor) has been disassembled in my garage for 9 years. I've done 3 other tractors and a lot of house repairs an the way by, didn't touch it for almost 2 years. i now spend at least 1 hour 3x a week doing "something" on it (last night - degreased 1 hub. Now if I could only find the other...) After it gets done my dad's 82 GMC is next on the list, been wanting to get at it for 5 years. Frustrating, but when the Alllis rolls out it's fresh orange paint, black trim and tiger stripes, and polished stainless (ever seen that on a Tractor?) it'll all be worth it.
BTW I still have the 455 from my Buick that I was going to build 1 wife 2 kids 2 houses 8 truck and 7 tractors ago. It WILL be put together some day.
