When you get it done, it will be a mean little beast, and provide much joy. What are you waiting for?
Look, don't look at the whole job, or wait for motivation to strike before working on it. Just promise yourself that you will start working on it. That's all. Once you get going again, you'll be motivated to finish. And, don't forget to take pleasure in completing small steps.
Function before fashion.

keep being lazy, you'll never finish. its just a worthless money sucking venture gaining nothing in the end. just give me your 3L! kidding, get that shiz done! how can you not be excited about turning that key for the first time when you finish? think of how nice it will be to have your 'tour back, running strong with more power than ever. and the satisfaction of completing a project like that! do it! i wish i had a project like that for my 'tour!

Take the emotion out of the situation. Dont focus on the negative or lack of motivation, come up with a list of things that need to be done to make it happen and set to work on that list
