Stay with it Brian. We all go through this sort of stuff. You'll get past it.

Aaaand to prove it's true, after 3 days of driving it to lunch without issue, today the speedo cable took a dump. Can't keep an aftermarket speedo cable in these cars. And yes, I know how to install them, followed the OE routing, made sure no contact with anything. Be nice if people would not cut/melt the originals, they seem to last longer than the 100 miles the aftermarkets do.

Looking more like it's going to be a parts car/roller in the near future all the time

sh*t man, I can't even get one to stay together as GM built them. The odds of a 2 door wagon actually working are bigger than my ability, it seems.

My wife says this will pass....I don't believe her, though. Look who she married, obviously not a good judge of things
