This morning one of the first people I spoke to (outside the house) brought up a previous conversation, and told me I was wasting my time working the Jeep. "Screw it," he says. "Leave it as is. Go do something else." This fellow is seldom positive, so I filter his advice, but it started me week off a down note after what felt like a productive Sunday.

So, why do we bother fixing up our old vehicles?

- I don't own it; I'm just looking after it for the next owner.
- Because it is mine.
- I like how I feel when I work on it.
- I want to return it to original condition and remove the mistakes and modifications others have made.
- It is one of about 24 on the road in Canada.

PS Ed S. will know who I mean when I say 'Hammy'.
