My solution to this is I have the unique ability to stare at my car and say "Good enough." and actually mean it.

"Infinite amount of time between "finished" and "actually finished""

Yup. My 914 will never be finished, even though the restoration thread for it ended coming up on 10 years ago. There is always another project for it.

The real secret Ian is the rest of us use your videos to remember how our cars go back together, after we realizing we should have taken more pictures.
