Not sure where you're at but there are still lots of good original GM doors & fenders out there. Somebody else will need to discuss other panels with you...Joe

Had Sherman parts years ago and the fit was a disaster.  The new rear fender panels had to be sectioned away and spliced to the original quarter because the fit was so bad.  Could not use the whole panel.  They got re-replaced at the next repaint.

A convert that needs everything will test your skills.  My advice - You will need a LOT of bracing to keep the car from collapsing once you start cutting. Save and patch anything original that is still serviceable.
