The moment you doubt whether you can fly......is the moment you paint a sea horse on your Rover Streetwise bonnet?

I suppose it's a minor detail, but wouldn't you need bespoke driveshafts to mate the VW gearbox to the Allegro hubs?  TBF the ad does mention "not connected up....."

Not a minor detail at all, a major and expensive bit of engineering.

Before you can get someone to weld-up* your two ends of previously unrelated drive shaft, you have to work out EXACTLY how long the finished assembly has to be which is not a trivial task.

**Precision, max-strength welding too,  in some sort of rotary jig.

 

Anyway, here is that massive estate you wanted. 4.2 straight six* and live-axle.

Just a thought, but it would surely have cheaper, less embarrassing and more 'fun' to have nailed your purple headed womb broom to next door's fence.

Fuck knows where though.

With a little bit of imagination you could upcycle that roof rack into a lovely pallet

Jonny Smith is in the process of wedging a V6 out of an 827 into one. 

I think you mean various people are building it for him.

The a series maestro used a vw gearbox so a mix & match driveshaft is a distinct possibility.

That garage used to be around the corner(-ish) to my old house. Legit place and they let you have a good look around without hassle. Their other stock is usually on the pricey side but they seem to flog on cheaper stuff. I imagine quite a bit of their custom are old folk going for an upgrade and going around the corner to their local garage, despite the stock being expensive.

Help this man, he needs help. He certainly needs to be here being enabled by a bunch of reprobates, he may already be here for all I know.

That interior doesn't look much* worse than many '80's offerings, it must be fucking dire with 50cc though. A strong tail wind is your friend!
