Today I spent the day at the shop sanding and filling minor holes. No new pictures from today.
I completely understand that. I had a 1928 Model A (hence my username) that I tinkered with for a few years (it was not road-worthy). It would sit for extended periods, and I finally decided to sell it to somebody who would finish restoring it.

I find that I can maintain my momentum while working on a car as long as I keep it running on the street. I'm sure I'm not the only one like that.
