na it not bad the only reason so much got cut out was started to get picky n every little bit i tho was na quite right was cut out, only thing left now is gearbox mounts, back panel and to line front up the wings before heading to spray shop. would of been done a while ago but s1 turbo shell came up at good price so ended up finishing it first as need very little work welding wise.
