Working on cars alone VS having a few buddies around....

I get both sides of this discussion. Working on the cars is very much therapy for me - music on, doors closed and locked, and getting to work. However, I'd be happy to have some kind of wrenching friend with whom to trade labor when it's needed. Pulling engines, trannys, hoods, and so forth is a royal PITA done alone. I've floated the labor-swap idea a number of times with no results. Who knows why the offers have gotten zero response. Maybe everyone else is just too busy. I dunno. Meanwhile, I continue to slog along solo but one way or another, I will get these cars on the road.
