I also have a X with lots of rust in non critical areas, but all of the structural and important areas are good. So I'm considering something similar. Although I won't be going so far with it. For the most part I'd retain the X's body but rework the fender arches (badly rusted), front and rear aprons (damaged), corners, etc. However I do want to change the windshield frame and targa bar to something more like the "Runabout", making it a 'roadster' with no windows or top and a short windscreen. So more of a hybrid of the two cars than your project.In the end... I want to end up with something taking some design cues from this.
