are there any idears for doing this, is it something i need to address bearing in mind this will only be a road car with around 300-320 bhp. i was planning to modify the rear suspension brace, seen a cool pic on the pi site of a cross braced set up. looks fantastic so i guss my reason for doing it would be a bit more cosmetic than structural[/QUOTE]

GT5, You are in the best situation to do the WHOLE CAR the right way the first time. Besides the typical bolt in chassis stiffening stuff, go the extra mile and do ALL of the weld in sheet metal renforcements. In the grand scheme of your restoration it is nickel and dime stuff. The most expensive part about doing this type of work is paint and your going to do that anyway. It will pay off in the future whether or not you keep it (peace of mind) or sell it (resale value).
