Here's teh start of the new version. I think I've tried just about every method of building these things and I think putting in guide splines is the best where there area lot of compound curves. I put in the splines where there will be body panels or there is a lot of fiddly geometry. Then in points mode I can use 3d snap to spline and know where they are going.

I find this particularly useful when it comes to putting the windows in. A simple spline the shape of the window, put that in place then use "rounding twice to give me three points at each corner. They make that little radius around the trim.

I now intend to get on with it, I might put up the window construction later.
