How to stay motivated on your project?
I Definitely agree with the "Clean/Orderly Shop" theory!
I get a little urge and open the shop door to a pig pen it really is discouraging. My 60 year old Dad can be a PITA sometimes. Leaves my tools all over the place and greasey. WTF, I spend several hours putting everything in its place and blow the shop out and lock it back up..
That night I pick up a magazine or get on the web and get a little motivation there. Next morning I am ready to go and accomplish something. Definitely have the parts/materials available that are needed.
I am working sheetmetal and trying to get mine in Epoxy primer and get the jambs painted. Then start with all the electronics and fuel system. Got almost all the dings and dents removed and cut them with a file to confirm they are gone, just need a couple coats of primer/surfacer. Lots to do just gotta get busy. I have been fairly productive lately since the weather has changed. Quite a bit cooler now! Gonna be in the 40's Tuesday morning! YEEESSSSS!
I did my entire front and rear suspension in a weekend once I had everything. You shouldn't have too many problems with yours.
