72 duster Build progress

DusterDude72 said

I could sand on this thing for a year straight. and all said and done and painted I bet i could still pick out stuff I dont like or didnt come out just right. im not that way with other peoples cars or when buying a used car or anything. its just when its my own craftsmanship. I guess i just figure if i spent this much time and money on it than nows no time to cut corners or rush through it. either way the plan is to have all the sanding done and in primer in the next week or two and hopefully in paint before the end of June so I can get a few months worth of enjoyment out of it.

but trust me.....I have my days (like tonight) where I spend so much time getting it just right and its not coming out exactly the way i want that I have to just get up and walk away and call it a day lol.

rome wasnt built in a day......but this dusters going on 3 dang years now LMFAO

Trust me.. I understand all to well what your talking about.. I have already picked about a dozen things about the buggy that irk me.. And the more I stare, the more I see... I was truly mortified by the fact that after all I went through, the 4 differant times I primered the car, all the sanding, blocking, checking, looking, filling, wash, rinse, and repeat that we did, when the color went on all kinds of stuff I NEVER noticed or saw, popped up.. I was so irratated at first, here I was at the moment I had waited so long for and I wasnt as happy as I thought I should be... LOL .. talk about messing with your head... but after my wife calmed me down and talked some sense into me (not too mention my friends, and the many people on here) I just decided to quit nit-picking the buggy.. and your right, I NEVER, never, ever do this to cars I see at the shows, or cars in magazines, or ones I just pass by... those cars I just admire, and think 'hey that car looks bitchin'... but when it comes to the buggy, I nit-pick LOL .. cant help it.. Like I said in my thread, She may not be the most beautiful girl at the dance, but she'll turn a few heads! LOL .. All I knew was I wasnt getting any younger... I would've kept at it til I was too old to have fun with it LMAO ...
