Ajaffa1,
Beautiful job so far! Perfect choice for a rehab project. As Glort pointed out it's 99% mental and I'm sure you will be back to normal soon. One thing to keep in mind is nerve damage takes a very long time to heal. It's not something that is gone is a few weeks. A year or two would be an appropriate timeframe to expect. Having suffered a neck broken in multiple places, you could easily have suffered cord damage that will take much longer than expected to heal. It's a pain in the back side, but it is how it is. You might ask your doc about supplementing with vitamin B because the nerve sheaths are primarily made up of the stuff.
Regarding your Lister, what did you end up using to get the crankcase so clean? I have multiple old engine projects to tackle at some point so the knowledge would be very helpful.
Again, beautiful work!
Wishing you the very best in your recovery and an excellent 2018!
Kind regards,
Steve
