That's a fresh head for my Saturn, an easy way to drop $500. Still have to spend $140 on gaskets and bolts and after spending $1000 on my Ranger's transmission and clutch I'm starting to get upset about the amount of stuff the 924 actually needs.

It happened to me too, but you will get there dont worry. My 2 major projects are the Porsches.

One has to choose which cars need the lowest budget to complete sometimes. being also a classic car enthusiast I also had to spend some money ( from the Porsche's budget) and choose to have 3 other classics almost finished, besides my other cars that this, which since are modern and well kept though dont need much.

So dont worry about spending cash on other cars which need repairs/ servicing etc. Im sure your making the right decisions here.
