tinman,

So sorry to hear about the problems. As Patrick said, they're just cars. Small potatoes in the big picture of life.

This car is everything you wanted and it's special and unique. You could buy a sorted car (there IS a lot of value in that) but your car will get sorted out. And for who? The NEXT guy?

This is your baby. I know the build has been long and arduous, but you just got it. And realistically, this may be the first of a few issues. This was not a vanilla build.

Hang in there, tinman.
