I'll second that, then again I did up until I hit 60 a year plus ago, so Neil has a fair way to go yet before he catches up with my current snail pace on my projects !!
This E55 AMG and his Crossfires are a testament to the quality of work that Neil does, I remember about 10 years ago I bought a non running V8 W220 S Class, that had had everyone and their dogs working on it and ended up a non runner with a million faults, same state of disassembly so I'm actually lovin' this project and seeing it gradually come back to it's former glory just like the S Class did. I still have the S Class, and a small fleet of other MB's including the V8 R170 SLK
Can't wait to see this Car finished, but Neil, for heavens sake get rid of those "Ghetto" rims and put a decent set of AMG rims on it

I bought this set of staggered's for the S Class cheap enough, and tri colour refurbed them myself, Satin Black inner, Gunmetal outer and polished / clear coated Rim Edges. The W220 didn't have the side skirts on it as I still had the rear 1/4's to paint at that time, and the SLK was still a V6 with it's stock wheels etc, but here's a few pics lol ....
