need project ideas
 
give me ideas of a project car for an engine swap.

drivetrain will be ls1/4l60e with nitrous.

no s10 or fbody. preferably a car.
going for sleeper style.

I wanna do to something different but can't think of anything that would satisfy me.

Civic.

I would love to see a civic like that despite how much I hate them.

WildBillyT 03-14-2011 03:46 PM

Buick Roadmaster

civic is top option already. 95 2dr coupe.

I've also thought about volvos and jags.

also no rx7 or mustangs

G-body Pontiac Grand Prix or Buick Regal - preferably one with a vinyl top, bench seat, and 14" whitewall tires. :)

roadmaster just too big and heavy

and steve, after that 87 monte SS I did, I never want to touch a g body again.

another idea I had was a 30s hot rod

another idea I has was to find a salvage saturn SKY

WildBillyT 03-14-2011 04:03 PM

^^ THIS would be awesome.
I want to say that there was a redline version of the sky with a LSx at one point though, no?

*edit*
I'm wrong. Mallett made a v8 version w/ a LS2. http://www.mallettcars.com/sky-conversion.htm
I bet not too many people know about it though, as it wasn't a production car & I only heard about it once on a forum a few years back...

Great. I'm going to hold you to it :rofl:

Yea, late 80s XJs do have lots of room under the hood - that would be awesome!
