What have I gotten myself into?

I don't know if I'd say crazy...more like; goal-driven, ambitious, unrelenting, perseverant...

I don't think I'll go quite so far with the grafting of the bumper into the body like you did, but I definitely dig the idea of cropping the drip rails and modifying the window channels with newer style gaskets without the chrome trim...don't get me wrong, I dig chrome, but it's not really my style. I've also pondered installing '73-up doors to get rid of the leaky/noisy vent windows...
