As Ayeroll said, a good welder can do the job and not lose structural soundness...in fact may even improve it.

In talking with those who know a lot more than I do......the entire top should be cut off along the drip rail, then fashioned to match the extended 245 roof line.

The 245 to 2 door I metioned, started life as a 245. The donor was a 242. The 245 had the doors and center post removed...the door frame ( back half) from the 242 was welded intoplace and a small patch put into to fill the small void. The long rear side windows are streached a bit.

I don't know hjow to post the pic on this board...I'll be glad to e-mail to anyone .
