definately burn out and i have been there and still am. i had to walk into the garage start slowly and put less hours into it. pressuring my self to finish it was not a good way of doing it. my wife actually pushes me into finishing it and im doing it slowly at a pace and doing other things in the same proccess. i picked a area and focus on one spot at a time. alignments are a pain. i did the doors first and mocked up front end and frame with a tape measure every inch of the way before paint. having the shims pre setup for easy install. still taping it is the best way. the hood goes easier when the fenders are set in close to your measurements and the shims are preset to go in. still i see your point i sometime hate that f--king thing because im mostly im a perfectionist and it will never be perfect.
