While I am stuck home during this quarantine I have been planning out my eventual build. Trying to figure out on paper how to make everything work nice with everything. I am lucky to be able to work from home but i am getting antsy and want to really start it. Unfortunately I am still at least a year if not 2 away from really being able to starting it. Hope I can find myself the G Body I want. What is everyone else doing during this time to stay sane?
 
I'm in my garage for at least an hour a day doing something to my car. I'm lucky enough to work from home as well.

What are you planning to get or hoping to find as your project?
 
My wife has too much crap going on for me to spend my time on other than my widebody el camino. Just doing something around the house takes some creative substituting to avoid a homestore trip.
Needed some of those little approx. 3/16 diameter shelf holding pins. Substituted plastic wall screw inserts.
Wife wanted wood floors cleaned & conditioned today before someone coming over tomorrow. She had 3 types of some restore type product , but no cleaner to use first. I put on my kneepads had wiped the entire living room & dining room hardwood floors with a white t-shirt rag & Zep spray glass cleaner.
Really wish I had time to get bored. 🙄
Our new dogs are loving the hell out of me being home, they been getting a long walk around the neighborhood in the middle of the day.
 
I’m an expend... er, essential employee, so even though it’s reduced hours, I’m lucky enough to still be working (made it through 3 rounds of layoffs so far). The wife has been home for around 3 weeks now, so the honey-do list has grown at the same rate as her boredom.... I might have this list knocked out by 2025......

I will be looking for a 84-88 Monte Carlo SS. Planning on doing a big resto mod to it. Already got the OK from the Mrs. Just don't have the space for another car right now.

Thankfully I can work from home and my wife wife is an essential worker. She works in the hospital but away from patients.
