The vision is to build a very nice car with a very modern drive train. It will be converted to RHD and use a the RRS conversion and suspension. I want to use a completely modern drive train. A 5.0 coyote crate engine is my first choice - however here are a lot of fitment hurdles to overcome, I may make some compromises and use a local 5.4 XR8 motor.
The plan is to fit all the mode cons, air / steer / power windows / key less entry / central locking etc...
When I originally purchased the car the plan was to do an eleanor style car, however I still keep flip flopping to do more of a gt500 style hybrid. The plans change in this area almost daily, but I will need to make a final decission real soon.
The plan is that I will do the deconstruction (as sen in the photos) and then hopefully in the next week or two hand it over to Steve and St Mary's prestige to put in a full floor and install the RHD panel. Once the chassis is in good order - I am going to have a go at the body work, modifications and mock up myself. Once this is complete I will return it to Steve for paint. I will then do final assemble myself.
I thought the floor was in good condition when I bought it - but on close inspection it was far from OK - and the plan is to replace the whole unit on the car-o-liner. It would appear that the floor was repaired in the US at sometime, and rather than actually cut the rust out - they just welded in new floor pans and leave the semi rusted ones in there
. The upshot is it is not upto standard on the underside - so with the help of steve we will make it right.I have my budget arranged and have met with the engineer and got the OK's on all the fine details.
I will keep posting updates as they come in. In the fullness of time I think I will have lots of questions for you guys so I hope you can help.
