Default Mini Tub or not?

So I am replacing both rear quarters and tail panel. Since I have this much work to do already should I just get with it and Tub it? I have the DSE stage 1 kit up front. I just love the look. I have a 68 Camaro. I will probably run the G bar in the rear.

Big vote for mini tub here. My 69 was the first mini tub I'd ever done and was not bad at all. I'd guess in the 35 hour range or so. Definatly looks great when you can get that big rubber underneath. Any questions let me know

If your going to run a G bar it is less work because you only have to do the tubs and DO NOT have to instal the big crossmember. If you are in there anyways, it does take the car to another level no doubt.
