Well I work for my parents as much and as often as I want. I pay for my insurance, then gas, then some things for the girlfriend, then the celica gets the rest. I save some, but not what I should.... I also do mowing jobs for more than a few people so I usually have a constant flow of cash. Usually..... not the case right now and I finally need the money frown.gif

as insane as this sounds, my car has her own visa. smile.gif BUT as soon as i buy something i pay the bill when it comes. Its good because im building up my credit while i do all my celica shopping :-). I only use it for the big things like the projectors and JDM tails. My paycheck goes riiiiight to the Celica. tongue.gif

J/P

although alot in the town i cruise in thinks i deal cause of the cars i have.


I buy wrecked/repairable cars or cars with engine problems. Mostly Ford Probes. Buy them for a couple hundred, put another couple hundred in it in parts and sell it for a couple thousand. keep a couple hundred back for another car and spend the rest on the celica. biggrin.gif
thats gotten me through the past couple years.

I work very hard and for very long hours, I have had 2 days off in the alst 14. (not 2 days in a row but at least 7 days apart)

I pay cash for every thing I buy, I have no loans, or bills of any kind, so my money is mine.

work hard, lots of hours.. havnt done to much on the celi, but im also smart about my money. I spend money were its important to me. Liek I dont go out and buy $50 shirts and pants. I also dont go out to movies or dinners much eiather. I do party alot though. I didnt work for a year and lived off money i saved which was only around $2000 or so, that was everything, which i dont think to bad. Sence i got a job i have been doing the stuff i need like buying new colthes that fit and stuff and gas an having fun with it, but i work hard and save.

I work, away from home frown.gif 13 hour shifts every day including the weekends both sat and sun with one day off every 14 days. Wont be home again till August, not long now smile.gif yey. then lots of money to spend on the "4". Shopping list includes - New slotted and drilled front discs, new rear pads, lowered suspension, electronic boost controller, water methanol injection system, full stainless exhaust, no cat converters, respray (where some bastard keyed it a while back) new set of tyres. new steering wheel. that should leave me with enough money to live on baked beans on toast for the rest of the month but who cares. should be nearing the 300BHP mark by the end of next month, pictures coming as soon as the stuff arrives.

I just spread everything out and take my time, kinda a pain in the arse but I get it done and I still can have time to enjoy the car.

And just so eveyone knows, I finally have built up the funds to get her back on the road, engine goes to the shop monday pistons will be in end of the week or start of the next and then I just got to put her all together. Will be on the road by the 17th at the latest.

all you gotta do is be very patient, and do what I did, take your gf outta the picture and all of a sudden you got lots of money to spend, lol.
