Re: Anyone just skip the the bodywork and rebuild everything mechanical.

Rebuilt my '71 on what I call a mechanical restoration. Everything mechanical is new or restored, rebuilt engine with performance upgrades, rebuilt trans, replaced all wear parts in suspension and brakes, replaced all the rubber seals, replaced the floor pan, corners, painted to match and buffed the body. All original trim which is rough but cool, wheels are sandblasted and powder coated. Took 7 hubcaps to make 4 good ones, upgraded the tech with a old looking new stereo, HEI, Holley Sniper EFI, added front and rear stabilizers, posi rear dif, drives perfect looks old.
