Kate is out for the day and I decided to sneak it into the shop while she is out, she plans to tackle as much of this project as she can on her own..
I think she's going to need a little motivation though This is going to be a big project for her..
We have been discussing it and were planning on gutting the floor and building everything from scratch with a mustang II front clip or C-5 corvette with 4-link out back but after getting it in the shop and crawling around under it, the undercarriage is in MUCH better shape than I anticipated.. Looks pretty solid.. So she may have a decision to make, but if the underside is as solid as it looks it may be a good candidate for leaving it alone.. We will have to get it on stands and i'll have to really look it over but I'd hate to see the money get spent on stripping it to only get left with a bunch of holes and floor panels to replicate, but like I was saying, it may be more solid than I expected..
Let us know you're thoughts on it!!!
Here's some pictures of the car, she doesn't even know it's in here yet.. layful:
