Just time to be honest with myself.

There'd be a lot of projects for sale if we were all honest with ourselves?

I do understand though Jeff.

Jeff, I totally "get" where you're at with this decision. I think it's very brave of you to decide to let something go that obviously meant so much to you, so you're to be applauded for Doing The Right Thing and getting your life back. I know there are many out there that take years and years assembling a kit and getting it "just so", but personally I couldn't ever see myself spending more than a couple of years on a build, simply because I don't actually enjoy spannering all that much, which is one of the reasons I went for a LB (quite straightforward and minimal chance of cocking it up totally. Honest!).
However, before you do the deed - is there no way you could get someone else to finish it for you, even if it means taking out a loan? Because even allowing for that extra outlay, you'll get more for a built and roadworthy car, so even though you might be done and dusted with it, it could make more sense financially to do that? Just a thought...

Wow Jeff, what a decision to make. Although I am a Newbie to the forum and at the early stages of putting together my plan, you are obviously at the other end of that equation. Must agree with Norm, is there not an option of getting someone to finish the car for a fee? You would have the satisfaction of a finished car and you would expect a comensurate increase in financial recompense for all the years of hard work that you have obviously put in to this project. Good luck!

Thanks for all the thoughts on the "there must be another way" lines, but my aspirations and ability to fund and achieve them have changed over the years. I am living on about a third of what I used to have available to me so the Hawk is really not something I can justify any more. It is time to move on.
