[Healeys] Is the list down or just us?

Thu Dec 9 10:34:36 MST 2021

Time passes. Looking at my Rogue gallery photos, I see that I did my
last restoration in 2017, Then I sold off my lift, sandblaster, etc.
and many tools and also sold my 30 x72 shop in Dec. 2019-just before
the S---hit the fan. In the meantime, I built an 18 x 30 garage at
home, to house my four remaining Healeys.
Crammed into that space with the remaining tools, there is not much
room to work on cars, although I can still do a transmission on the
workbench. However, this year I decided to redo my 100 interior to
make it concours correct and today it will be completed with the
addition of the finished seats done by Right Way Trimming. Then
what?...Hank

  Quite the disparity of time, 30 minutes a week to 5-6 hours a day!!
I guess I fall somewhere in the middle of this. Right now I'm pretty
much finished with my BN1. I rebuilt the engine the engine last year,
first time I ever did an engine by myself, but figured I'd tackle it
one bolt at a time, make sure the torque settings were correct and
lube, lube, lube as I go. Have over 2,000 miles on it now and though
it makes a lot of noise, she runs smooth and loves to go down the
highway cruising at 80 mph. She also loves the twisty roads and I try
to get her out at least once a week for a hundred or so miles.
 I also have a MGB/GT project I'm working on now and like Ira, I try
to get 30 minutes here and there to work on it, but not weekly, daily.
Some days it's thirty minutes, some days it six hours, but I don't
beat myself up over the hours spent, I just do what I can when I can.
I'm doing a complete engine rebuild on that car also. Figured it
worked once, I should be able to do it again. Right now I'm waiting on
valve springs and the machine shop is going to do the boring soon for
20 over pistons. 
 So basically, I do what I feel like. Try to stay busy and with taking
over the Advertising Manager position at AHCUSA Magazine, I've added a
little more to my plate. I do try to keep everything fun though.
Challenge is good, but frustration isn't. Luckily, I've learned that
taking the time, thinking things through and not trying to finish
every little job right now, helps keep frustration at bay. That and
just walking the beach while I think helps a bunch.
 Thanks for the question Perry, hope all is well in your world and of
course the rest of the list as well. It seems the list isn't down,
it's just walking the beach and thinking!

  Listers
  Good morning ladies and gents….
 Hope all is well with you. Perhaps something a little different
today. 
 Read the subject “Is the list down” and had this thought…..
 With the daily requirements and responsibilities of life life facing
each of us every day, how do you maintain some motivation towards your
planned or ongoing projects in the garage?
 I understand prioritization and even treating your hobby as a
business with set hours, etc.
 But there is always that little voice that says, 
 I’ll get to that tomorrow, which turns into long delays in
progress. 
 Curious how you approach this issue.
