Having grown up in the Church of Christ, this project is doubly cool for me.
Looking forward to where this goes!

Very cool project. Will the roof be chopped, or are you stopping at a body sectioned and channeled?

Will make the chop decision after we get it all back togeather.
It does look like a chop would help the profile.
May look better when the windows are installed
May not use the straight axle, looking at replacing with a front section from a p30 box van, same frame deminsions plus disc brakes ane power steering, also dropped spindles and springs are avalible
