We did the math and this worked out cheaper than buying a dynacorn body too.

I think the roof will be the only panel that stays stock lol.

I was wondering about that -- i.e., beginning with a Dynacorn or similar. It's just amazing how much work has to go into bringing these poor bodies back to life! Your builder seems to have a good handle on things!

If it was me - that's what I'd choose! Awesome motor! More than ample power. A lot more complicated - but probably worth it!

Love the direction your going and really respect you for doing this given all the additional "headaches" etc by doing this in the UK. Good for you!
