I have been off and on. For my basic skills, and if I were to ever attempt, I find the approach of the flipped axle interesting. So, no cut-chop-reweld like Frank Z did on his Gen II.
That, and the using of the trailing arms, versus Frank's 4-link, again make the conversion seem more attainable for someone like myself.
And then there is the other extreme of that monstrosity Nitteberg is hatching...!

Hey Aaron, nice Squareback in the garage there. I had two '70 Fastbacks when I was a teen (and drove one of them cross country when I was 19). The Type III's have always been my favorites.
