Will I learn yes. But I ignore the results because I am tired of high payments, and ugly cars. I need simple. A simple 450hp truck. As simple as that. One that I can fix while I promise never to do this to myself again, but I lie alot to myself.
I kept trying to talk myself out of going further but it I kept thinking “since I’m here”. I did this with a VW squareback years back. I did a quick paint job to sell it in 2004 but after the 2 Ds( deployment and divorce) I started working on it again. While putting a new wiring harness in my foot went through the fiberglass repair in the floor from a previous owner. It ended up with the body off and hardware all plated and everything painted. Slippery slope
