My first thought on this build was to restore to original. However the engine has been swap as well as the trans. (to a side shift so not to bad) With that info. I'm considering doing some slight modifications, engine upgrade etc. With regards to the body my thought was to eliminate the chrome trim around the roll bar and shave the lip around the roll bar. The reason is to just do a slight mod that not everyone would notice and keep it classy. Have any of you seen this done and if so what are the thing I need to watch for. I'm sure welding that area is gonna be touchy but I think it would look great in the end. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

See pic of were I'm thinking of. Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated.

Sorry about the sideways shot.
