Restoration/project question

A query. When one undertakes a restoration or project that takes significant time to complete, do you folks prefer one to post as it is undertaken, or do you prefer it to be completed so you don't have to wait for the outcome? I've stupidly began a complete rebuild of a mid year that includes a 3.6 swap, elephant racing suspension etc. I'm fairly deep into it and have pics , but I can't help but to recall the TV show Lost. I remember having to wait in between seasons to watch for a resolution that finally came but severely disappointed. Had I waited for it to come out on Netflix I could have wasted a weekend of sloth watching it and wouldn't have committed my heart an soul for years only to be heartbroken at the end. Anyway. You get the point. Warning. I am proned to digression.
