I wish you well with that project . But believe me , it isn't a weekend job .. it will take over a year .. or more . I built a 1A2 body from scratch for the C8 . Without the engineers blueprints (which I didn't have), some guesswork is needed here and there. Photos are great , but they won't give you that final ' detail ' that you want . It's not a cheap undertaking , and it's painfull if it turns out looking like a non-original copy. You need access to heavy tools for cutting , folding heavy gauge steel. The panels on that body look to be fairly long , may be difficult finding a guillotine that will cut that length. I don't want to put you off , but the project will have your hair will turn greyer .. if that's possible Mike
