Update here...I am not going to chop my 91 first. My 86 which has trans issues, is first to go under the knife, or sawzall. Still going to have to wait till spring for this, even moreso, as it is sitting outside frozen to the driveway again.

Hmmm, I wonder what that would look like?? I have to reload my program before I can give ya any ideas. It would make your massive gullwing a little liter. But you have the same height problem I will be faced with....lol

lol I will not be chopping Superbeast! We need to have room to live out of at least one of our vans when we leave the camper home. It would be a bear to chop tho. It curves and tapers in almost every direction.

The kind that is sprayed in a paint booth by a professional, as I have been told that I know NOTHING about paint. I'll stick to cutting and welding.
