Hi
I just love the looks and sheer ‘Presence’ of the GTR. I must build one. But.
I don’t have enough money!!
I will primarily use it on the road so it will not need to go as fast as it looks.
This is what I had in mind but would appreciate your thoughts. If I get no replies then I will know how abhorrent you have found the proposal.
· Chevy engine. Either new low power (300ish) or second hand.
· Renault gearbox + gearchange
· Salvaged Ford uprights/hubs, new bearings
· Salvaged Ford Scorpio brakes inc. handbrakes and ABS, refurbished
· Salvaged Scorpio power steering + column
· Salvaged Scorpio Drive shafts
· RV Dynamics Bellhousing
· Salvaged Scorpio heater and aircon
Plus any other way to keep the cost down.
I thank you in advance and am at your mercy.
Steve
