thanks for the inputs linda!!
anyway... back on topic!
i dont really want this car to be on the road, and dont really wanna outlay any money for the shell, plus its a good start to making different cars seeing we'll be doing all the work ourselves!
pentae, true it will be heaps of work, but i'll still be selling the engine and g/box, and all the interior etc.. so basically the only thing left would be what would go off to the scrap heap.. can get the materials for the tunnel and tube frame for free....... so why not do this definately something different
Flipmo, yeah i realise the EW setup for current engine but the firewall is actually bent already.. will be cutting it out and welding in a new tunnel so i'll be able to mount the engine back behind the front strut to get a better weight distribution...
