Jeryst, I know how you feel. I've owned my car for fifteen years and for many of those years, it just sat and waited for me in some state of disassembly. Every now and again, I'd get a wild hair up my arse and go out and work on it like a house afire, but then the enormity of the job would overwhelm me again and I wouldn't touch it for months. I'd find something else I wanted to do, like 40 weeks of NASCAR or surf the Web or yardwork. Or I'd make excuses, like how much stuff I had to move to get to the car or it's too cold (in San Diego, fer chrissakes) or too hot or I didn't want to disturb my wife or listen to her complain. There have been many times when I thought about selling it and buying a nice running A-body or Mustang or whatever to have fun and drive - most recently, today, looking at Rare_T/A's new car.
However, the wonderful help and support of the people on this site have made all the difference. Despite a lack of support from my wife (and we won't go any further into that story), I'm feeling like I'm making progress on it. If I don't work on
something every week and post some photos and mention a little something about the trials and travails of the weekend's work, I feel like I've failed the other members who are watching and offering advice and encouragement.
The secret, which I'm sure others will second, is to look at it as a series of small projects and small triumphs. Pick up some little thing, be it a piece of trim that needs a little polishing or a interior trim piece that needs to be cleaned and for one day or one weekend, work only on that until it's where you need it to be. If you don't know what it goes to, post a picture and ask. If the "What the heck is it?" thread can now be up to

somebody here will identify what the part is, where it goes and if it's original to your car. Then, you can start to sort your boxes of stuff into more recognizable groups and start to reassmble the car.
In the end, two years will pass either way. You can sell it and get another driver and I'm sure you'll be happy, but there will always be that voice inside that says "I wish I could have driven that 'Cuda." Or you can let it sit and remain frustrated. Or you can get started and we'll ALL help you finish it. We may not be in the garage with you, but we'll be with you every step of the way.
