It definately is NOT a performance car (although maybe in a strait line) The front end is a solid axle with a single leaf, and possibly friction shocks (for cool effect) The rear has two large radius arms and a PHR. With coil overs. Other engine choices would be a Buick strait 8 with some "clearancing" to make it work. Also a Buick Nail head, Pontiac 413, Ford 292, Ford flathead, Chevy 348 or 409, and maybe an Olds Rocket, or 331 ci Hemi.

A finned aluminum box built around the hilborns W/a turbo setup. Mated to a T-5 manual out of an S-10. Front disk brakes W/replica Buick finned drum 'brake covers' Rear would be a GM 10 bolt (again out of an S-10 fitted with 3.73's and a T2R ( (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ). And adapt the G-body aluminum drums to it. Build a simple interior, and some Hildebrandt wheels with repo cheater slicks on the back.... I just may sell my Comet so I can buy one of these!! (all of this spawned from simply looking through my fathers Speedway Motors catalog. They are the nations oldest speed shop you know (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
