Re: My Decision

I say do what you enjoy, but you do need to get out of the garage every now and then. Most teenagers these days are either up to no good, or playing video games.So, I think your doing just fine. My teenager plays guitar, so he just has a couple friends that play guitar as well and he gets up with them every now and then. Other than that he sits in his room and learns a new song. I'm "unsocialable" as well. I'm happy just hanging out here on the farm and messing with something, truck, tractor or some farm repair that needs to be done. My wife (who I met because she worked for me) is the social one. She will invite people over and I'm forced into socialization...lol but that usually includes grilling something and a beer or two.

Re: My Decision

Good move. High school should and will be some of the best times of your life. You will have plenty of time for that big restoration project after college when real life sets in.

Re: My Decision

I was in the same boat you were in. It was the summer before my senior year in high school and I had the same decision to make. I decided to do a full blown frame off restoration and I wouldn't change a thing if I could. I've learned so much that I can apply to future projects and I'm gonna be turning 20 soon with one of the nicest trucks I could ask for. Either way, keep the truck and if you decided to restore it now or later you'll always appreciate it.
