And the collection grows by one..

Didn't see that one coming.

OK so basically I have been SUPER lazy with this. Long story involving a shitty relationship breakdown but I am living on the barracks again now and finally in a good position to start working on this (the red car). I am also fighting this weird mental barrier I have where I feel like I can't do it, it's too complex, it's too much work, there is too much to do. I know this is stupid because look what I've done with the white car, but it's in my head nonetheless.. I just need to muster the courage to actually start somewhere and I think (hope?) it'll all begin to flow nicely from there.

Meanwhile, I have followed my usual pattern of buying myself something nice whenever life kicks me in the balls, so yes, the collection has grown by one. Grange #0010 really has to go ASAP. Four cars is a little absurd.
