I thought I would start a fun thread on the silly over the top things people do for their Rolla's. Times when you have put the old Rolla ahead of the misses and or family.

 

 

For Me:

 

I knew I had crossed the line, not when I came to the realisation that I could have bought a brand new corolla from the caryard for the money I have spent on my restoration but when I had a painting done of my car ( I own a company that supplies fine art and investment art to auctionhouses and galleries throughout Australia so thought what the hell). I decided to get Jasper Knight (One of Australias most famous contemporary artists) to do a painting of the car so that I can hang it in my house - Ironically the painting is worth almost as much as the car and to add salt to the wound I have already chosen the spot for the painting to hang and it involves pulling down my wedding photo.

Not the missus or kids , but my beloved 393 stroker cleveland engine all fifteen grand of it is still on a stand courtesy of one little ke10 lol...

I refused to drop them off or pick them up today so I could get my car ready for a meet tonight.

The day I returned from work on Wednesday after two weeks away I saw them for about 30 minutes then left and went and picked up car parts.

Kinda hard to put cars before wife, considering she's owned 5 of the 6 cars we've had...
