ABodyBetty's new baby comes home!!!

I find doing bodywork and (especially) paint to be a very effective "bucket of cold water" poured over my natural inclination to perfectionism. I just don't have the skills (or disipline) to do as nice a job as I want to, so I end up with paint runs covering glops of bondo by the time I'm done, even if I start with the best intentions. Of course, it'd help to have a worthwhile subject and "smooth canvas" such as Fern. The amount of time and effort you've put into just her front driver fender would defeat my patience, for sure.

So, for what it's worth, I've found your determination and workmanship (on Fern, and also FOTO) to be an inspiration- keep it up.
