I've been down the road of losing a project (or 2) and being faced with the daunting thought of whether or not I can muster the energy to start it all over again from scratch. Recreating something that you likely spent hundreds of hours on (or in your case recreating it twice) takes a special kind of person with that "never say die" attitude. The hardest part is picking yourself back up and just making that FIRST step... painting that first car.
Knowing all of that background, makes this project all the more meaningful, satisfying and valuable to me and the countless others who value your most accurate, meticulous and top notch work. Thank you, Bill.
