Nick - Welcome back.
If it makes you feel any better, I am only just preparing for paint now, over 5 years after I first bought my donor car.
The way I look at it, anyone who actually gets a Sammio on the road deserves full praise, regardless of how long it took.
Good luck, Paul.
PS
Back in 2012, the cuts you made to your body shell looked scary, how little did I know about what lay ahead of me.
