Need motivation!!!!

Sounds like you have a good idea about getting the paint and body work done first.
That would give you some time to think about what you want to do with the gauge cluster.

I'm kind of in the same boat I've been skipping all over doing different things because it gets boring just wet sanding all the time. But I think I'll take pettybludarts advise and get back on track focusing on one area at a time.
