I would say all of the above and none of the above. I have had a lot of frustration lately over getting parts for my 184 Loboy and dealing with the frustrations of a relatively modern design (way too much plastic, aluminum, and fiberglass) coupled with a low proguction run and unique (ie not completely interchangeable with any other model) and it has been a frustrating mess waiting on parts and scrounging / fabricating what I need.

Other machines have been easy to get parts for and the parts are cheap...those are fun to fix and replace any part that isn't 100%.

So...I enjoy doing the mechanical work and getting the machine to 100%. I hate dealing with old rusty bolts and nuts. I hate cleaning / degreasing, etc probably because I don't have a pressure washer. I don't mind metal prep when my sandblaster is cooperating and I can get the part off. Painting us fun but I'm not real good at it.
