I think you should build a time attack special. Start cutting weight saving holes whilst you ponder upon it and then realise it's a great idea! 

 

Then drop in the ls and add a few turbos on top for good luck...

Put the V8 in the Pickup

Didn't you make a thread a while back talking about making a pickup 350z?.....

This is the perfect time surely. Wang the V8 in the front, chop a load of metal off the back.

Done.

Time to make a coffee and go ponder if these two would play nicely together without the need to buy a conversion kit,

I will update you on my findings later :thumbs:

Buy a conversion kit  :nono:

when I were a lad 19 I believe I did this with a drill a jigsaw and a welder so we'll have no more talk about buying a kit

Can you make your thread titles more self explanatory please. I seem to frequently stumble upon major build threads of yours by accident which means I have probably missed 847 crazy car builds of yours which have been going on and finished before I can even do 1.

@andybp  Twice!!! Ouch!!!!

So sense does not come with age then!! Can I call you pops now I know you are that much older than me :lol:

In my defence I was only 19 then the fact that I've also broken every finger and my thumb on that hand since individually I have no excuse for :shrug:

Yes you can call me pops but not daddy as that would seem wrong :lol:

Ouch I mean I hope these breaks were accidental but seems you have done a fair bit of damage to that hand over time.

 

maybe you should take up origami as a hobby  :lol:
