EPT
I have a problem making decisions that don't matter...when I need to make a decision quickly or it's a huge decision I'm making or something like that, I'll make it, and I'll follow through. The problem lies within these little bullshitty decisions that really don't matter at all.
What shirt to wear.
Where to go to lunch with coworkers.
I eventually figure something out but it's always such a stressful process. Haha. Meanwhile everyone is like FUCK, TRAVIS WE'RE HUNGRY and they know by now not to leave it up to me. :3
My current dilemma, as I said, involves my car. Right now the paint is in terrible condition because it sat outdoors for 6 years from the previous owner. It's black but they did a terrible job with the paint so the red paint underneath it flakes up and you can see it. And under the red paint is its original gold paint. There's an Oldsmobile 350 Engine in it that needs to come out and be replaced with a Pontiac. I can go Pontiac 400 (original) or go bigger for much more HP gains and get a Pontiac 455 out of a LeMans...I don't want to turn into another person who lets one of these rust away because they can't do anything with it.
I need to make a decision on the car. What am I going to be doing with it. Am I going to be trying to revert back to original everything and take it to shows and run in the OE category? An all original car is a beautiful thing, but it takes out the fun in other ways...why not build a drag car? Something to show off to everyone at shows instead of going for the pristine look?
I don't know about you but a properly and well built muscle car is fucking awesome.

I love that sound.
I'm happy with any of them, which is why I can't decide...as time goes on, these cars are more and more rare and they're not a common sight. I'm sure you can imagine, I love cars, love my American muscle (and some imports, GT-R Mmmm..) and I go to car shows ALL the time, and the Pontiacs are becoming especially rare. The last show I went to had around 150 cars and only one was a Pontiac of ANY kind (71 Firebird if anyone cares to know.). I've got the car I've dreamed of having since I was 8. And because I can't decide what I want to do with it, I can't get started on restoring it.
It's like wanting to make a build order but you don't know what race you want to use.
So I leave it up to TL.
RED!
Red is fucking awesome. Plus Redjustice on TL picked the car out for me (I couldn't decide what kind of muscle car to get lololol) so I told her I'd name the car after her...but do I make it a red car, too? :o

BLACK!
It's black now, but in terrible shape. Black cars look the best imo (matches my 2002 Trans Am :D) but a bitch to clean.

BANDIT!
It's basically black but has a lot more gold trim and accents on it. Looks pretty Badass. Plus I can totally grow out a Mustache like that. Only problem is that my car is not a T-top but a hardtop....expensive to cut them out.

ORIGINAL GOLD!
An original car is like Hydra-tier in classic cars. The BW player Hydra. Basically top A-teamer and barely scraping S-class sometimes. DRG of cars? You know what I mean. It's not common, and it's a show car and not a toy car. I like the idea of having a very uncommon show car, but gold is...different. Remember mine is a hard top so no roof glass!
