you can do a lot to stiffen the chassis , subframe connectors , torque boxes , you can also improve the suspension with Hotchkiss parts etc & basically leave the frame alone / stock & definatly make the car fun to drive without building a whole tube chassis for ti

Do you have any experience with Mopar suspensions? Is the car in Qatar ? I would contact some of our sponsors like Motech Performance, Dale's Cuda shop or look in the back of your car magazines for contact information and ask them what they think it would cost in time and dollars and what you could expect to pay. Maybe it could be done in stages. Most of us cannot afford to do something like this all at once. Talk to as many professional people as you can for info. If you go to car shows, talk to the people who have a setup similar to what you think you might want. Good luck Sounds like a fun project.
