    It is a long process to make one of these nice. Staying motivated for the long haul is one of the keys in my opinion. If you plan any major tear downs, do a boatload of careful planning and accumulate parts first. Leave the car in drive able condition until all parts are gathered so it doesnt sit in a heap for enough time to become a regret. If life throws you a curve ball in the process, having a drive able car instead of a garage full of parts in boxes is much easier to deal with too. Keep up the good work.

    Thanks for the update. With other demands on your time it’s perfectly normally to work one your car in sprints. Keep it rolling!

    I second Stuart's advice! You will keep more interest in a drivable car as opposed to a pile of parts.
