I have to go to MI sometime this month to pick it up. I have a 53 to get ready for paint and then I can get started.

My plan is to use the body tub from 1990 #444 to do the conversion and make the molds from. After that, I'll probably sell the body tub as a convertible. Someone can build a car out of it.
