Less aggrevasion if you don't need to set a firm date to get the Vette done by. I found there were way to many factors that I could not control how long it took. And if I had a date stuck in my head, I probably would be 6 feet under from a massive heart attack by now. Just enjoy the process and take your time. Things will come out better and you can look back on this as something you had a good time doing.
Nice progress. Keep lots of photos coming.
