:-D I used to be the same as you when I was younger. I always had to have a vehicle ready for....... (insert appropriate deadline). After doing this for way too many years, I realized that my blood pressure, patience level, and frustration level were all maxed out to the Nth degree. Not good at all. And the closer I got to my self-imposed deadline, the more things I screwed up or broke, and the more 9/16" wrenches that went flying off into the night, never to be seen again. Then AFTER I'd met my deadline, I usually had to go back and re-do the things I'd hurried through and not gotten just right the first time.
Now I work on my car when I have the time and inclination, and I don't have a set deadline to have it finished. Much more relaxing and enjoyable work than before. Plus I get to spend a lot more relaxed time with the wife......she has a much nicer tailpipe than the Vart. :toothy10:
