Found my dads original 1971 duster!

Sure. The whole mental attitude strategy its very very very tough to get through. I done giant massive car projects, got my *** kicked on every one of them, never fails, unexpected challenges ect *** kicked bad every time. When I not happy drop tools walk away go rest up come back fresh at later time. But going about it strategically goes a long way to success. Understanding yourself, how brain power can fade when body tired etc, self aware. You learn to go about it very strategically methodically. Then one day its like damn my car is awesome. It takes forever for that day to come, but take care of your physical and mental health, strategic, you will end up on top over time. Brute force, nope, wont work.
Yep. I totally get it and agree! I look at all the stuff done wrong on my car…and most of it is likely caused by what you speak of
