Doug, it is possiable to do. Streetrodpainer.com did mine after it got totaled. Bought front end from Hillbank motors. Ken cut the front off and put the new one on. I don't own it any more and didn't have anything to do with putting it back together. It was at the last bash and you couldnt tell it had been hit. Photos in my gallery of the wreck. You can buy the body for it in two pieces if needed. You just have to make sure what spo number it is as the old does not match the new.

Didn't know that you could buy a whole new body. Can only imagine that it's a HUGE project to remove and replace the body. Any idea what the ball park price is?

Blas I will give you a shout in a bit!
As far as body cost Superformance has $7247.82 on main body shell unpainted without doors hood or trunk. I have doors but no hood or trunk. The body appears to be glued on with a harder silicon type material to the trunk. Individual front is 3335.15 and rear is priced the same.

The body is attached with Silkaflex. Difficult to remove but do-able. We'll get into detail later, But what you have is an early style chassis. The newer style replacement parts will not fit properly on the older chassis. More on that later. From your photo, the windscreen does not appear to be the original, to the car, just something included with the body. A careful inventory will be required to see what you have and what you need. But I assume you have a salvage title when all is said and done...That could be a problem down the road...

A painted body lists for $11,995.00. There are rivets holding the body to the frame as well as the adheasive, but it is very doable as the adheasive must be cut, but as you are not saving the old body you needn't worry about damage to the fiberglass. I doubt you will damage the steel frame members in chiseling the Silkaflex off.
