This isn't meant to be a criticism whatsoever, but there's no such thing as a straight edge, true radius or the slightest kind of symmetry about a Sammio body shell, and they're none the worse for it.

you could put a huge amount of effort into trying to get the shell 'straight' and/or symmetrical, but it'd be easier and quicker to get the House of Commons to agree a Brexit deal.

I'd recommend you make a few changes to things that might irritate you - I took a flat area out of the off-side front wheel arch and built up the passenger side cockpit edge because there was a noticeable dip - but don't sweat too much about the overall shape, just finish it, paint it and enjoy it for what it is, a homage to the racing cars of the 1950's that looks a million dollars and turns heads like nothing else on wheels.
