To be honest, I was getting peed off with it taking up my parking space, and the neighbours making snide comments...
The donor looks loads better in the pics than it really was too. The bonnet was full of dents, the wings full of rust, the hood full of holes, and the bumpers full of cracks!
Plus it was all badly painted by what I can only assume was a monkey with a rattle can.
I paid £500 for it and got £750 back so I'm happy enough
Still got a few bits I could sell, but I've lost interest now. I might get round to it next time build funds are running low

I'm not quite happy with the steering wheel height either. Not sure how to get it lower though
If I go any lower the column hits TR9, and if I go below TR9 there's no room for my legs.

How high is the sierra steering wheel? Can someone measure from the centre of the wheel down to the floor for me please?
