I guess you are right, and I learned a lesson years ago from the cars and boats I have rebuilt. If you don't put every screw in place before you start driving it or launch it you will never get back to do it. Once you start using them the fun takes over and you just never seem to want to finish the little things. On my '27 the plan was to drive it in purple primer for a couple of months and then blow it apart after I got the bugs out of it. There were no bugs, and after 7 years of driving it the car was still in purple primer.

I am getting anxious, though. Been a long time between rods.
