so Matt and I have had this in mind for a while, and sitting bored in the garage today decided there wasnt any good reason not to, we already have 90% of everything we need lets go for it pics will tell all

first off wheel choice, or at least to start

and here we go, when an oem replacement gas tank fits this good in a place it was never designed to go, you just have to go with it

and here it is, the concept

shouldnt be to long, for matt and i

grinders and welders

Aw itll be supercharged probaly with a m90 or a m64 from a mercedes. With as much room that is back there mounting a supercharger will be nothing. But heck in two and a half hours we had the dash, motor, wiring, and the rear pan out. I guess brandon missed turnin wrenches and i playin with our trusty dewalt grinder.

That is sweet, I can't wait to see how it is done.

Well pretty much that rear beam will be coming out and a mk2 k frame will be goin in. With alot of moching, fabing,welding and grindin it should come out. The hardest part will be brakes, clutch cable, and shifting. But me and brandon have a few ideas how itll go.

You know im not sure. I like them i just hope i can pull off 16s on a rabbit. The et is 40 so they might tuck and be okay. Only time will tell tho.
I got them with a car i got a while ago. Trevor might know

lolololol i think you should move the gas tank back a little. maybe up next to the fire wall if you ever hit something its gonna spew gas all over.
i vote you build the front like an aircooled and make it the trunk
