  1. Oh Mike. I hope one day you can see your self-worth. You’re gorgeous. You just like to point out all your flaws to turn away buyers… don’t worry though, I do that too. We’ve got self-sabotage down perfectly, don’t we?? But like LifeLessons said, there’s someone….

  2. I’ve been watching a lot of West Coast Customs lately and always watched cars shows. Did you know there are some models that are so sought after that even the shit from the junk yard with a layer of dust goes for top dollar? See it’s not so much the engine because that has to be replaced. The body might be full of holes but they cut off the bad in weld in something strong and new to help support the structure. Once they get done pimpin it out then the car looks better than anything that just rolled off the line and it’s more valuable too because it’s one of a kind. Just because you think you are a clunker doesn’t mean someone else does. There is a lot of people out there turning someone else’s trash into treasure.
