Sorry to hear about the health business, I hope it improves for you. Having your body betray you sucks.
I completely get the corporate nonsense though - that's what caused me to pull the plug a couple of years ago. Too many people who never drove a truck making stupid policies and decisions for the people that actually do drive trucks. And refusing to listen to anyone who knows what they are talking about (Mr. Halfafish, that policy was crafted by a recent graduate with a Master's in Business - what degree do you have? Oh, not much just a high school diploma and 40 years in trucking...). Policies got harder to support (I was a manager) and increasingly I was struggling with keeping my thoughts to myself. I figured I'd better leave on my terms or I was going to get canned for speaking up. Best decision I ever made.
That said, keep up the good work on your car, it's a beauty! I've been following it since you brought it home. Your ingenuity is an inspiration to those of us not so gifted with mechanical knowledge or experience.
