Ztrix.com, formerly Reaction Research has a kit that can be had in coupe form.  Looks expensive on a price sheet, but is top notch quality.

I looked there, but saw only the roadster version. Did I miss it?

 

edit: I sent ztrix a message asking about the coupe. 
 

update: I heard from him. He has three version of rear clip, including coupe. The plot thickens!

The site is new and completely different from when I bought a kit, but I did see a coupe rear tub.  You can always give them a call, which you'd want to do before ordering anyways.  Too many details to work out to just click 'Buy it Now'

Can anyone provide copies of the build sheets for an Alpha 1 GTO kit?  I bought mine in 1992 as installed on a '78 by Automotive Concepts in NC. For some reason the cowl cover was filled in to the surround so it is not removable and access to the cowl is limited to a slot from the engine compartment.  Now I have water leaks to the interior and need to figure out the intended drain routing and/or alternatives.  Would like to make the cover removable again, but don't know why it was done this way originally.

Also, I installed a SBC over a number of years (I am a retired engineer, do my own work and had to replace floor pans, redo wiring, clean up the engine compartment, etc., etc., etc.). Now I need to recalibrate the tach with limited access behind and would like to know how the kit dash was put together and installed.

So, build sheets would be very helpful for these and other "opportunities" to come, plus to add to my massive files.

I have worked through many issues on my own and can provide suggestions and pictures to those interested.

Thank you.
