Ok, it's a little different, but still kind of a creative venture. I've always had a thing for older cars and when I've got enough cash spare I like to buy one as a restoration project.
Since having a breakdown a couple of years ago I was unable to continue with my pride and joy project of the time and ended up selling it:

It might not look bad so far considering it's been around for 1/4 of a century and has done the equivalent of driving around the world 5 1/2 times, but my plans are for it to be a show car, which means I must continue until it looks as good (or better) than the day it rolled out the factory.
