ha! when i know i'm doing a ton of this work, i put in the ear plugs and a debris mask. maybe i post up some of the PILES of dust, Rust, debris that fell out of the Mustang shell, i'll have to look.

for the record, this is a historical account. I am currently (june2023) much further along, but I thought i could document here as this crowd might appreciate a project more than a corvette or mustang or VW/Audi forum might!

I am sure this is the right place for it as it is a great idea and you can save a **** ton of money on buying a chassis.

so, i had friends to help me lift the body. it was doable with 1 extra pair of hands, but having 2 extras was great.

i was hoping to keep as much as possible, but really, i think, in the end, maximizing what is kept and what is cut is a fool's errand. just cut everything and fill parts back in...

i did get the shell media blasted. I didnt want too many surprises with body work. I ended up epoxy priming (Eastwood)

I also got my wheels in.
18X11" ET57 APEX EC-7 CORVETTE
Tires: toyo proxee R888R 295 30 18

the stock springs are still in place. this is why the ride height is so great. ~7inches

Looks awesome and I love the wheels !!!!
