wow, been there!

during my resto, there were weekends where i'd spend 12 hrs at the shop each day and still not get everything done i wanted too... then there were weekends were i would spend 12 hrs/day on the couch!

its especially tough when your in the middle and seems like your on the road to "no-where's-ville"... i found that, as others have said, focus on each aspect of the project. All i know, when i got to do all the detailing, (wiring, putting on the grill, wheels/tires, wood in bed, etc) I WAS PUMPED! and couldn't get enough... each part i put on really set it off...

good luck man!
