Choosing what not to do
Sometimes you have to choose not to go too far and that can be difficult.
That rabbit hole can go as deep as you let it.
Engine out led to cleaning the engine bay, cleaning the engine bay led to repairing surface rust. Repairing surface rust led to painting the engine bay. Painting the engine bay led to cleaning out the cowl and k member. Cleaning out the cowl led to painting the inside of the cowl. Painting the cowl lead to paint the brake booster and the wiper motor. Painting everything lead to wire tuck. Wire tuck lead to rewrapping the entire wire harrness. Wire tuck lead to removing the charging ports. Removed charge ports left room for washer fluid tank and closing the charging port holes.
Now I can certainly do more, close all the inner fender holes. Repair the tiny frame rail ripple and the little chain mark from the frame puller, but I need to draw the line cause it's not a full restoration and it will always only be a driver.
