I just bought a 67 camaro that has all the body work completed and a fresh paint job. If i replace the rubber bushings he had on the car with 1/2 height aluminum ones, what kind of issues am I going to run into when trying to align the front fenders back on?

None that I know of. What it will do is change the following:
air cleaner clearance
Z bar alignment
Transmission tunnel clearance
You will need to modigy a crossmember to get it between the body and frame
Steering shaft length
Brake lines from master to frame


Mine has them but by accident. Now you know what your getting yourself into. I wouldn't do it.

thanks vegas69! I think you just saved me a boatload of unnecessary mods.
