The bodywork is probably 3 times more difficult than the rest of the car combined  Not because it's technically difficult, it is just SO tedious.
With the rest of the build you can make a long checklist and at least see some progress as things get ticked off. With the bodywork the list is short.
Fill, rub, repeat many times
However, people telling me it's looks OK and they like where I'm heading helps a lot! So I do appreciate it. Another thing I'd recommend is plenty
of pictures, that helps to convince yourself you actually have made some progress
Yeah, Mk1's, fond memories. I've done a few rallies in them in the past, basic car, solid, simple, reliable.
