I've been waiting for these for ages. I finally broke down and just bought them. They went straight on the card.

Most of my parts are bought with profit from horse trading other parts. It keeps me from feeling guilty about spending $$ on a hot rod I don't really need.

Putting them on the card just doesn't feel right. I gotta dig up some junk to sell. I feel the need to make this "right" with myself. Or am I just a weirdo?

They are cool though...

Oh, it will be paid as soon as I get the bill. Guess I just hate taking "our" $ for my hot rod. She's cool with it though, so I guess that helps.

I did get to pick them up in person. Coker has a cool shop. Almost worth the trip.

Like you, I finance my hot rods and rod parts with money made from trading/selling other parts and vehicles, plus, with a side job [usually wiring] to help generate fundage. I leave "our" money [wages from the daily job] for paying day-to-day bills, mortgage, etc etc....
Nice 'stones, though.
If you're sweetie is ok with it and you can afford to pay the card with your job's wages [without financially hurting yourselves] than I don't see the harm........
.........but, I couldn't.
