C2 Paint progress!
I need to get motivated to finish this build. I'm burned out. I did a frame off about 11 years ago. Lots of refinements this time.
I'm going to need you guys to kick me in the *** for reassembly.

How I did it was to concentrate on one small item every day. When I was at the stage you are in, I put the windshield in and took my time. the next thing I did was the door handles. I found it very motivating. that color is fantastic! Job well done.
