Not collecting that..now collecting this next week......

[Rocket88]

After steadfastly claiming that I wanted something to waft about in.........out of the blue, this appeared.

 

Deff nor waftage....

 

[sutty2006]

First thoughts.......

 

 

 

I’d easy trap a nut on that roll cage entering and or exiting that vee-hickle.

 

 

 

Ouch.

[Rocket88]

Some re-thinking in that department might be on the cards...............as you can see by the stuff in the background, Steve knows whet he's about..[probably not that welcome amongst some 'shite contributors though.]

[Isaac Hunt]

Has is got working aircon ?

 

Bet it sounds great, proper vee 8.

[Rocket88]

A bit lacking in creature comforts, as you can see................soundproofing, different seats, and a heater on the cards............I think a radio might possibly be a waste of time...........

[Junkman]

Something nice was engine raped and an Amazon was ruined.

[Supernaut]

Judging by the things in the background, I imagine that's very good at covering a 1/4 mile very quickly.

 

Looks like a proper laugh, anyway!

[Rocket88]

Something nice was engine raped and an Amazon was ruined.

 

 

 

 

Yup...............One rotten Volvo, and one rotten Firebird, to be precise..............

[They_all_do_that_sir]

Very nice. I'm sure it's rather perky.

 

Quite a lot different at the front end from standard, is all the suspension etc custom? Looks like they've cut away inner wings, wheel wells etc and welded in a partial space frame?

It's an auto and it's got a big engine. Surely it can justifiably be a wafter as well!

[Rocket88]

Yup........front space frame tied into roll cage.......front end is rack and pinion, coil over suspension. Back end is Volvo four link. Front wings are fibreglass, the whole front end can be removed in 10 minutes.

[LightBulbFun]

needs Project binky style flip front 

 

it would be fun to put all the Volvo interior stuff back in and turn it into a proper waft and sleeper machine

[sutty2006]

No need for a radio. Sometimes I switch the radio off in the mercury to appreciate the burble of the V8

[Guest Hooli]

That'll Waft Like Fuck.

 

Approved.

[Mally]

I'd leave the Bonnet off.

A bit lacking in creature comforts, as you can see................soundproofing, different seats, and a heater on the cards............I think a radio might possibly be completely missing the point...........

 

[Split_Pin]

That looks terrifying. 13/10.

[Rocket88]

It's been done properly...........the only really safe [!] way to do this kind of conversion is to space frame the front end............and preferably tie that into a roll cage. Engine [400 cu in Pontiac] is also tucked back as far as practically possible, in this case, pretty much being the front steering /suspension. My old Consul [see above]had pretty much the same set up, but that was 160 bhp.......this is around 300.

[Schaefft]

But what about that white AMC Pacer in the background.

[Rocket88]

On it's to being a balls out 1/4 miler.............

[bangernomics]

Bit of a departure from the CX , at least you now have the full matt/satin black set.

 

Bonnet idea

 

[DSdriver]

I can't think that the missus will be slipping into that in a white evening dress and faux fur stole

[DoctorRetro]

Ooh, now that is pretty cool
