67 Firebird sheetmetal Q's
I finally picked up a 67 Firebird 400 project car. I've been wanting one for a long time and found this through a friend of a friend. The car had been torn down, so I could spot most of the sheetmetal work needed, but after taking apart a few more pieces of the car, I found it needed more than I expected.
My question, or questions are, how far do I go in taking panels off the car without the car becoming structurely weak? It needs in the rear, new quarters, tail panel, inner and outer wheel housings, package tray, and a full trunk floor that includes up into the shock tower area. Which company offers the best fit?
I've haven't done this amount of sheetmetal work at one time, so another question is gonna be...what panel do I start with?
I'm new to this sight, so any advice or pics to help me out would be great. I plan on being here a long time as I tackle this car. I'll be posting up pics soon. Thanks!
