I understand your point Steve. What parts on this car are different from a standard Firebird or Formula? Couldn't a guy find a dry 70 Firebird and use many of the parts off of it? Are Trans-Am parts that specific? I know the fenders have the cut outs but couldn't they be grafted from the original fenders? Is the core support different between a Trans-Am and standard Firebird? What about the quarters? Dash? It seems like a guy could find a nice original 70 Firebird and have most of the parts he needed since the Trans-Am specific stuff is there. Unfortunately, because of this Matt may be right. It could be a rebody waiting to happen. It just seems to me that door skins are not necessary if you can find clean doors, etc.
