NOPE

you need to/MUST weld in braces across body to stop it from flexing and bending, you may have some serious alignment problems with parts when you start to put them back on, seen it happen

When Verne removed my body from the chasis to change the floor pans it was strapped so much it looked a little bit like a web. Welding the doors will help but not without the braces and if you braced and strapped properly you dont need to weld the doors as a matter of fact the doors should actually be off.

I need to get some metal work done to my front and rear fenders later on to accept wider wheels but at the same time just look a little more aggressive, not bobbled, just like wider with the same style can these fellas handle that job?

Ok, all of these cars in this entire thread are beautiful, but I have to admit, I was expecting to see more. Where are the Firebirds? Camaros? Vauxhalls? GMC Sierras? :(
