My current project: 76 BMW w/ LS2 is my dream, but too mucking cold to work on any of it. Would like to build a 240 since most of the parts are easy for me to get, but finding a good body.

As far as a “project” goes, Id love to do an S62 850i, or an S85 E30. But those are high dollar builds, I dont want that much wrapped up in a car that will be beaten on all day everyday. So my current project is pretty perfect for me right now. S13 + VH45DE (Q45 motor) sole purpose being to rape tires. Its cheap, its light, its all OEM nissan shit so its uncomplicated, reliable and easy to fix. And best of all, its an S13, so i could give a flying fuck if it gets muffed into walls, trees, guardrails ext 🙂

nah, i want to go fast :D… while i do love the terminator, i couldnt bring myself to pony up the cash for the engine, people think they are made out of soild gold. IF i was to do a ford engine it sure as hell would start out life as a 351, not a 5.0… I just think it would be hot to open the hood and see an LS motor inside.

if I built a ford it would be a cleveland engine with australian heads

335 series FTW

modern Fords are mad over done

body wise I would do a 72/73 Montego GT/Torino, 68/69 Cyclone/Torino, what I would really love is an Australian Falcon…

I miss my old Fords
