Body Swaps

Postby XKRacer » Thu Feb 02, 2012 9:41 pm

This is something I have been wanting to do for a while, and will probably be quite a while before I actually do it......

But what do you do :think: I really liked the Escort body put onto the Scooby floor pan even if it did have to be shortened..... And being a Jag man the guy who put a Vauxhall Cresta onto a XJR, then you have the old Dodge Charger bodies being fitted over a brand spanky new Charger, all the old skool style but on a steering/suspension/engine setup that works (ish).......

I did send this to Will a while back, superb, I bet Ferrari owners didn't like that much :twisted:




But something with a lot of power onto something that does not look like it is suppose to, maybe the perfect sleeper 8)

I think if the rear roof section was the same width as the intakes, the rear would look better.

Great project though.

Practical Performance Car (PPC) magazine, a monthly publication aimed at real car enthusiasts, with real-world cars. At PPC we pride ourselves in providing the most entertaining, informative and inspiring features for petrolheads everywhere. Each month we feature an eclectic mix of affordable performance cars, great driving adventures and world-class technical features for the DIY tuner.

Everyone who works on the magazine is a dyed-in-the-wool car enthusiast and this is reflected in the cars we drive and the topics we write about. Whether it be fast road, track-day or grass roots motorsport you’ll find it in PPC. Our editorial team is headed up by well known editor Will Holman. Will has a deserved reputation for his ’stick a V8 under the bonnet’ attitude to life and has had (and crashed/ had stolen/ rusted away) enough cars to fill a monthly magazine on his own. His editorial team is stacked with experience with the likes of Dave Walker (speciality engine management), of the sadly-missed Car and Car Conversions magazine, David Vizard, the legendary engine tuning guru, and Kevin Leaper (speciality buying cars in pubs) – ex technical editor of Practical Classics. Have a look at the Staff Cars and features to give you a flavour of PPC but for the real thing get along to your local WH Smiths or independent newsagent. PPC is on sale on the last Thursday of every month.
