Well done, Owen: home straight now with the body by the looks of it.

I think it's a great credit to you, especially seeing the conditions in which you're working. It's a lovely stage when you realise that the colour sanding is out of the way, and all of a sudden the bodywork's done.

Best of luck with the last of the paint stages :) .
