    sell and reinvest, until you end up with what you want. The evolution of my coupe project body's is pretty amazing. Amen on cutting the top off and going the roadster route on that body if you build it.

    Well, let's see, I think the cowl vent, dash, package tray and right quarter are salvageable. How's the left quarter?

    MoJo...

    Looked pretty much like yours!! haha Maybe a little more metal?

    Here's a link to his webpage that has a partial buildup.

    http://www.vonfranco.com/Goldenrod.htm

    Check it out!! Pretty much what I'm going to do with my extra T coupe body.

    Laters!
