You are not obligated to get it right, just good enough to make it safe and you're comfortable with it.

I fergot about the windows. Only the driver's window behaves like it oughta.

And I need to investigate a better fix for that top...

I said I would top out my investment in this car at $2500. That included the purchase price (I got $200 in the car, not counting what Uncle Donald gave me back in the spring).

A $1000 repair bill will put me perilously close to that number.

well then if it looks like heading over, pick and choose the most important bits, and save the rest for later or leave them be forever. If you got it perfect immediately, you'd be bored AF after all. Just do enough to make you happy

What would you bitch about if you didn't leave something?

Well, I spent the $2500 but for another couple hundred I can make it perfect.

Uh, now that I have $3500 in it I have to keep it because I can't get my money out of it.

Something breaks... well the rest of the car is perfect, I can't get my money out, so I guess I gotta get it fixed.

It's a little tired but it works just fine... gets new girlfriend... Paint it!... Upholster it!... New top!... Whitewalls and custom rims!... A gross of air fresheners!

Yeah, I've had a couple that did that to me. Not really planning that with this one, but, I wasn't planning that with the others, either.

Still nothing from the car doctor. Going out there tomorrow, that'll be a week. Probably waiting on some part or another.
