I found a Mustang that needs a little work at a good price, but my wife is a little (a lot) reluctant. How to convince her.

Just buy it, Its easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission.
Buy here candies and say since you didn't get me any tell her you bought the car for yourself!
(this is coming from a guy who can't convince his wife to let him get a ps3. Maybe our new coughlesbiancough members can help us guys out. Just saying nit trying to be rude at all.)

I told her that I would keep the house clean, cook and clean out the garage (to keep the mustang in of course) She still said NO. I have to keep working on here.

Just be honest with her n tell her that thats your hobby and you would like to invest in a project car. that simple. If she still says no, PIITB
LOL you should know that shit doesnt work after your like 10..
as long as you dont put yourself into a finacial crisis buying it, just buy it. She will do 1 of three things, leave you, yell at you, or just accept it. Understand that all of these outcomes automatically are accompanied by a withholding of any sheet time you have previously earned.

Lmao this thread is hilarious
just get the car and tell her that you needed something to keep your interest...... a project for you to work on and keep you out of trouble.
but like it was said before if it doesn't hurt your wallet then get it.
what do you have to lose anyways? you already said you don't get it very much as it is. so what if she bitches and moans a little buy her a puppy
Then yell in her face OWNED

There ya go ... nothing will change. Just do it! LOL! J/Kas long as you dont put yourself into a finacial crisis buying it, just buy it. She will do 1 of three things, leave you, yell at you, or just accept it.

Try this: Tell her that it will be cheaper than that pesky heroin addiction you've been contemplating, and you hanging around in the garage will be a much better alternative to you (say...) hanging around a bar and wasting money and maybe picking up some STD ...
When she stops laughing at your silly ass ...
Explain to her that you seriously want something to fiddle around with in the garage. Then discuss what the budget and time line could be ... (That is, in my professional chickie opinion, what freaks girls out the most - they tend to get jealous of the time, money and attention that Betsy will be getting.)

If ya'll already have kids... convince the kids to ask her about the car and make em say they really want it. If you don't have kids... meantion that you wanna start building a car for your future kids. In my personal experience just talking about having kids is enough to get pretty much anything you want (even if your like me and don't want any more kids). If that don't work just buy the damn car, get yourself a nice bed set up in the garage, and be ready for a lot of nag nag nag.
Tell her you wear the pants so therefore you get to do what you want when you want to do it and if she doesnt like that that she knows where the door is and dont let it hit her in the ass when she goes out of it.........
Now I would just do as above buy it and beg forgiveness after......

Fathom the odd hypocrisy that Obama wants every citizen to prove they are insured, but people don't have to prove they are citizens.
If you voted for Obama in 2008 to prove you weren’t a racist, you’d better vote for someone else in 2012 to prove you’re not an idiot.

It's up to the voters to remove the other!

You gotta be slick with it like me! Ask my girl and she'll tell ya the 32v Coupe is hers, she bought and paid for the roller back, and then I smashed it with the 98 Cobra shit. So now she gets it during daylight, and I beat the shit out of it at night.
EDIT* Before anyone else catches it...BOTH OF THEM
trust me I thought of buying it a keeping at a friends house but I do not have any that is close to me right now that has the room for it. I admit it i am whipped

carlinsa that is priceless!!! lol me and my pops used to pull that shit on my mom when i was little and she wouldnt let me have something and my dad bought it for me and just told me to tell her my friend got two of them and let me have one. nice lol
im telling you it works
Do what i do, just show up with it. Then tell her you can't take it back.

I mean as long as you work and make money and you can buy it without missing paying bills do it. Now if your on unemployment and she works and you stay at home playin xbox all day then maybe not. The notion of having to "ask" your wife to do anything is disturbing. Last time I "asked" my wife anything was where she wanted me to put it.
maybe she will let you buy a set of balls after you buy the car...
LOL, JK
