I’ve been sitting in the garage tonight considering a couple of mods that I would like to get started on while I’m stripping the rest of the body down. One that I have spoken about already is shaving the drip rails. My gut is telling me that is probably trickier than it sounds, but I believe if I take my time with it, I can pull it off just fine.

The next modification I’m considering is repositioning the tail lights so that they are further in than the deck lid.

Lastly, since I am going to be capping off the doors and not having any side glass, I would cut these pillars out and go with a hardtop look.

I think this should keep me busy for a while.
