What do you think? I didn't want to cut the Canadian body, but the Super??

I'd route the exhaust ahead of the rear wheels and bob the bed, and extend the cab. The B-pillar is right at my shoulder. Those headlights, though? I had '40 Buick teardrops on my '57.



Here's a Type III install. Without all the ducting you can dispense with the sheet metal squirrel cage fan.



It could use a parachute behind the intake scroll, and side-draft fuel injection. Here's a South American body cut. They slant the back against the seats, and the concave roof-line is cutting edge aero, reducing the wake [like some supercar I can't remember }
