1970 2WD Project

OK so I am gathering parts for my 1970 2WD restoration. It will be a full body off media blasted process….

My plans are to build with minor modifications, nothing that can't be reversed.

First off I need doors, mine are pretty rough - I have located a set of really clean 72 pickup / suburban doors that I was going to cut down. My question is it really a big deal that they will be 72 doors with the added screw below the wing window for support from GM or should I look for the correct style.

Looking for a 1972 single wall top as it has no top - again preference.

It has a 67 front clip on it now and I will be using this as I prefer the look...

I will be also adding disc brakes on all 4 wheels with 5 bolt lug pattern. Drop spindles on front and lowered in the rear….

I wouldn't think that any future Buyer would walk away due to these mods?

And finally it will be a LSx conversion - too much benefit not to go this route and again if someone had to they could reverse it to conventional V8

Thoughts?

Suggestions?
