newer technology defies the purpose of a rat rod IMO
that and the blasphemy of a 4g63
A nailhead would be much more appropriate.

The more I read about this, the more I want to see this thing.
I don’t think you’ll piss off the true car guys, I think all you’ll get is congrats.
I keep thinking of this lil dude, kinda sums up the attitude of the car:

Damn, looks like a unique project youve got lined up. Way better than wadsworth’s Escort with a cavalier motor or whatever swap it is hes doing in that one thread that he keeps bumping all the time 
Good luck with it, im looking forward to seeing the progress! :headbang:
