I disagree, why not buy a 55 tri-5 shell for 1/10th the cost, and cut it up, rather than cut up a beautiful original... It just doesn't make sense, financially or morally.

gotta draw the line somewhere.

You don't buy a $56k restored peach and take a sawzall to the rear tubs.

I'd think it'd be a much easier conversion going from a pro-street tri-5 as well. Look at bad penny.

If that car is from Happy Day Dream Cars, it's a top-notch ride. John always has nice cars.

I say bolt on a set of 19's and 20's, give it a stance and leave the rest alone.
