1968 340S Coupe 4spd

The upside is that any metal needed should be easily obtained, since practically any A-body can contribute. Also, the 68 only specific parts (expensive) appear to be there and usable. Also a 4spd 68 Formula S is in the top of the most desirable A-bodies. Red - even better.

Downside, of course, is the extensive metalwork required.

If you're comfortable and/or ambitious, you can end up with a beautiful car. If it was an e-body, hell, everyone would be all over it. As long as you dont expect to restore it and flip it for profit, I'd tackle it.

Many have done much more, and ended up with much less..

IMHO.... I would find a good body and move everything over. You will be replacing damn near the entire body anyway.

Yeah, I will have to wait and assess the body before I make any hard core decisions. I certainly want to bring it back- how many one owner 62Kmile cars are there anymore, let alone 340S 4speeds? If I can make it work, this is a total dream come true.

Looking at it yesterday the drivers side floor is shot, but the inside fender wells in the engine compartment were solid as were the strikers for the doors. The trunk was surprisingly decent.
