My brother and I picked up a couple rollers and have started our builds. The plan is to put supercharged Hayabusa engines in them, upgrade the suspension and brakes and get them on the road (safely) before working on anything cosmetic.
We picked them up from Keith down in Nepoleon, OH and he recommended I document the build here. My brother is working now on the fab for the engine cradle and sourcing the transfer case to drive the rear axles. My job at present is to beef up the suspension and brakes to handle the planned 300+HP. Mine is the black 74 which will probably end up with steel GT flares. My brother's is the primed and glassed out 72. Let the fun begin! (If anyone has 5-lug / brake upgrade parts available, please PM me) Attached thumbnail(s) |

Build IT! Just build IT!, we can sit here an postulate all day long, Build IT and lets see the outcome.
I have my theories, I also have my theories on a Desiel build. I would also have my theories if you said, Miata, Chevy v6, Ford V8, Chevy V8, LS engine, S2000, Honda K, Honda V6, Nissan V6, Ford / Yamaha SHO, Corvair, and lets not forgot the Subaru crowd. And now your seeing the idea of Tesla drives. Build IT, just Build it. Then drive it like you stole it. If you don't like it you have the skills to drop something else into them, and make a go at it again. If that happens I have always wanted to build a hybus shifter cart. Can't race it anywhere except in X class, but Damn it would be fun, and a set of rear tires for each run. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) I still like the idea of a V8 hybusa, but that is just me thinking about a slightly large lighter cart style car. And Atom V8 clone, Thanks Muller for finding that one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |
