Probably not the only one around here that’s experiencing this never ending story…  Cheesy  This spring I finished my car after being busy building it for the past 5-6 years.  It was road worthy but I had some minor things to do.  Minor things envolving especially "looks"...  I made myself a list what to do, but it just won't stop.   Grin  Everytime the list is done and I think: yes, finally, it's ready, I can save up for something else then parts for my beetle there is something new.  Not that its necessary to do but you realy want that "new part" so bad that you are not interested in something else.  All you can think about is the new part and how it will look on the car.  these toughts are combined wiht toughts like: "yeah, after this it's ready, all I have to do is some maintenance but not invest the big bucks in it..."   Grin  Grin  wrong, everytime there pops up new things...   I hope I'm not the only one with this "problem"  Cheesy  Will it ever stop, or am I lost forever??  Lips Sealed

The part that I want now is a padded empi dash...  damn you fabs!!!   Grin  Grin

I can honestly say that I've never heard "Zach" and "Gentleman" used together in the same sentence before. Grin

But then technically, I guess I still haven't!

Wolf,

So true , but its the reality of being an VW enthusiast. I am in the same boat you are in. I pulled the motor to rebuild. Then I thought, what the heck and pulled the interior out. 8 months and 25 "simple tasks" later it is almost done. But is it ever almost done. Not for me.  Grin
