Thats really cool that you have done a real one, I have also, I however did mine quite different than the one pictured, I did a pie cut all the way to the bottom of the rear of the car and cut the a pillers then moved the entire roof forward and slanted the door posts, it was about 4 days of welding but WOW! what a look when done, there is a 41 near me and I think I am going to do it again, as that was one of the wildest looking cars I have ever built.
