My EO Corsa convertible is now in the extremely satisfying stage were newly 
painted, shiny parts and trim are coming together to create "like new" 
components.  For me, this stage is the most satisfying part of the whole hobby.  To 
make the time for this fun, I've been getting up at the crack of dawn and 
putting in a couple of hours before work.  Even more exciting:   though I've owned 
this car for almost two years, I've never seen it!  It came to me fully 
disassembled as a basket case.  The interior and exterior had been stripped to a 
shell. Even the paint had been removed exposing bare metal.  This thing is 
blossoming right here in my shop. (Is this an Orchid thing?) As a side benefit, I'm 
reclaiming about 400 square feet of shop area that has been a "pile-o-parts" 
for at least a year!
Woo Hoo!
