    Yea! I like the look of the longer shell, it suits the Pro Street look. Ive managed to get my body back on the frame. I reversed the firewall and the clearance is good. It was probably more work than building a new one, but i like the look. The body is chanelled 4 1/2" and all the floor framing and body mounts are complete. The floor and wheel tubs are next. I'll try and post some pictures soon.
