What the hell. Why not drop an Alpine body on a Subaru Outback sport and have
all wheel drive !
Or maybe tub out the rear, drop in a narrowed Ford 9" gut and cut the hell out
of the front, and drop in a Donovan Block Hemi 426? I'm sure someone could do
it! That blower would sure look cool sticking out of that gigantic hole in the
hood!......or maybe a J36 out of a Huey with a turbine drive like the hydro's
use....remove the trunk for the 4 foot wide exhaust pipe !!
There;s always something that can be done
