Looks Good!!
The hood is the hardest part of the conversion, I just used the Del sol hinges and modified the piece that fits to the hood, then welded the hood to the hinge. It's tricky to explain, but I'll get a picture of it soon. Then the hood doesnt fit right with the fenders so you'll either have to cut a knotch into the fenders or shave down the points on the hood.

can you weld? methinks having someone do the bodywork will eat up the difference in cost.

I am learning how to but I have friends that can. Also I would still need to weld to get my new rad support on.

That's the only reason I did an eg conversion on my car. I bought mine w/o a front end and the del sol parts were way more expensive. Earlier in this thread I posted a complete parts list.
