In my opinion, I would keep my orginal car that I know all about the mechanicals, and add the flares and dropped floor. At least then you have no regrets if you get a car full of rust, mechanical issues ect. Flares, pans, and tires and wheels and you have your dream car..............just my .02 worth.
