Has she driven it? That is pretty much a sure fired cure for the
indifferent wife syndrome. Dont make her be a passenger all the time. At
first my wife was a little ho hum about the whole thing, but then when she
got to drive she started getting Spitfire feaver. One night she went out
with her girl friend for a ladies night out and received more than usual
attention from onlookers. Two good looking ladies cruising around downtown
Waikiki in a shiny red convertable classic sports car, what a sight! When
I finally got the clutch working after about two months of being parked I
had to surgically remove her from the car so I could drive it. I would
much rather fight over who get to drive it than fight over whether I should
be spending so much time and money on MY hobby. Althought I do all the
maintenance, it is definately a FAMILY hobby.
