Just as slow as before mods..

What hobby? I saw a car I liked, and bought it to drive it. That's all.

As for learning, naw man. Too old and dont have the time. Need to pay bills. Besides, "hobbies" also require tools, and auto hobby requires lots of tools and tools cost money I dont have anymore.
There are lots of us on here "old". I'm 74, and not exactly in the best of shape. Last summer, from end of Aug through end of Nov, I tore my 2WD Dodge Cummins completely apart, another parts truck completely apart, and converted mine to 4WD The thread:

Frankly, unless you are VERY VERY well off financially, you can not afford these cars--unless you are willing to learn and do at least SOME work yourself. I cannot do bodywork, paint, for example. Your only other alternative is to REALLY look for a dependable mech who likes and actually works on and understands classics in general, and Mopars particularly. You can waste/ throw away/ get scammed out of one hell of a lot of money, that will end up doing you no good
