Per another thread the op is a curios observer and not the owner. The owner is seeking the advice of the few trained professionals. Curiosity is ok but I think I'd keep the tools locked up.

Op you might want to ask future questions in that framework. People here are, like I did before, detecting a high degree of unpreparedness. A professional cobra restorer wouldn't be asking these questions, especially here, and I think are trying ever so gently to prevent botching up a valuable car.

Absolutely none of the shiny bolts you need are at home depot or auto zone. And those that have them are a closed community.

But it does beg the question: Why? The car in its current form is worth more than restored. Unless it's really a basket case most would leave it alone. And even a knowledgeable owner would be a fool to risk aluminum body changes without tons of experience
