I am loosing momentum (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) Me and a close freind have spent countless hours on my car, and it seems progress is slow.. we did take it for a quick spin last night, which at first seemed like we were over a huge hurdle, but then reality sat in today I worked on it all day messed with the door catches, triangle windows,which has been driving me insane... painted under the engine grills black, started to put on the side skirts, but didnt get them on...had to do some touch up painting on the longs so there wont be any rust for a very long time... and thats about it.. I need to order some carpet and a oil pressure gauge and sender, some seals, some seats or figure out what I'm doing with the seats, and belts, hook up the rear trunk pop, tidy up the wiring in the front trunk and other places and the list goes on ,, it now seems I am nowhere close to being finished....Thankfully next week I am going to be out of town on a business trip, so I wont be working on the car, hopefully it is the break I need to come back and be focused getting her finished...
