Turn and burn TA, these old trucks can be frustrating and especially what someone has done in the past to the old rig. When I get frustrated looking at a mountain of work I make a list and focus on
one thing at a time. That way I feel that I'm moving forward. Looks like you have all the rusty metal cut out, half the battle is done. Keep chipping man

You will definitely get bummed every now and then when you're doing something that's so in depth and takes this much work. That's another reason why this forum is so cool, you will learn all kinds of new tricks and ways to get past what gets you down. I love going to the build thread and catching up with all the issues that others are facing and see how they tackle it. Best of all is watching someone taste victory after so many set backs and they end up with something that they are so proud of. Hang in there and before you know it you'll be cruising with the best of them.
