You part this car out with that garage and I'll come and kill you.
I've worked on 5-6 different miatas in my single car garage crammed with camping gear and tool boxes, including numerous fabrication and other race related projects.
If I can do that, you can button up this car. Get to it.
Best advice I've ever heard was I think from Keith's 7 build. Always do something. Even if it's 10 minutes of only measuring and center punching to get ready to drill some holes in a bracket, get something done. It'll keep you going though the end.

trust me guys - this ain't gonna turn into a FAEL project 
Just a couple more hurtles to jump and I'll be gtg.
If I part anything out, It'll be the '94 I picked up. Haven't given much thought as too what I'll do with it - which is good cause I'm ADD as hell. Gotta get the beast done first.
This whole house buying thing took a lot more capital than I thought it would - so I'm rebounding from that. $4500 into the shop floor wasnt planned, but seemed like a now or never thing with nothing in it when bought. That 61" Husqvarna wasn't in the plans either unit it took me 3hrs to mow with the 42" Troy Built I had
now down to 1 hour - amazingly fast.
Future plans - after the beast awakes - is adding a 2 post lift, naturally
If a good deal comes along, it will happen sooner - it sure will make my flat-paneling job MUCH easier
FEAR NOT - IT WILL LIVE!!

There will always be something that needs your attention, whether time or money. You have to make time for the car. And it gets harder to make it a priority as time goes on. I've got too many demands on me also. Wanna buy a Jaguar? Haha.
