How you can do that without a driveway full of parts cars is beyond me. Respect!

I'd have the one I learned how to cut apart, the one I cut apart, the one to replace the parts I ruined learning how to put it back together, and the one I finally got back right.

It's called zoning laws lol. Plus I have studied this car for quite awhile until I took the tubs out, and got lucky they only crudely beat the outboard framerail flanges down instead of cutting them off. Ya sure theres still repairs to do on the rails, however the plan is to leave the quarter skins intact to locate the wheel houses, and weld them in along with the transition pan and rear seat bracing. Once that's all welded in, and tacked to the crappy quarters in a few spots as a jig of sorts, I will pull the valance, and remainder of the trunk pan, and replace the trunk pan, drops and valance. Once that's intact to hold the back end up, I will cut the quarter skins off and replace them. I have been thinking multiple ways of disassembly and reassembly in my head, until I came up with this. Now working out in my head how to shore up the framerails to cut out the relocation boxes and fab up replacement rail sections to fit back in there. A lifetime of aviation sheetmetal fabrication and repair experience is what prepared me for what I am able to do.
