The only thing I hide from my wife is the keys...

I buy tools to build my cars or to trade for parts. She just thinks I need them for my job.

I dont hide anything from her. As long as she has what she wants and we both compromise on what we want and when we get it, I have no problem with getting what I want. However I may get some stuff first then tell her about it, better to ask for forgiveness than for permission.

Right now, I am hiding a 1960 Falcon that I bought her for her birthday... She gets it tomorrow, and I can't wait to see her face!

I hide nothing. If she wants toys she can buy her own. In the last 8 years since my shop was built she has been in it less than 5 times............I tell her the stripper pole is for festivus

I only hide what I'm planning. For example, when I bought my 55', I had been planning to get it for months, but I never said a word to her. When it came home on the trailer it was too late.

It's easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission.

Let's see... been married 39 years. I gave up hiding stuff 38 years ago.

Now if any kind of project car shows up at my house, even somebody stopping by showing me their new project, Mrs. Lowkat comes out and says "Is that yours?"

I wouldn't say that I "hide" the Chevy fund from her. She knows I have it, and I'm pretty sure she knows where I keep it. I don't volunteer how much is actually there, nor have I ever volunteered the combination to the safe it is in. I've never refused to tell, I just haven't felt the need to broadcast it.

I hide nothing from her,when we married I told her I was semi retired,only going to work maybe 25 hrs a week, we decided to build Lil32 ,she agreed, hon we need $5000 or hon we need $10000,OK of to the bank she would go. She loves riding in the coupe.Comes to LARS every year and like wandering around with me .Yes I do Shop Malls with her but I guess thats fair after she has walked for six hours around Pomona Swap Meet
