I don't have any Spare 1800 parts so this would be way too far gone for me to Play with. but the body looks pretty good. No affiliation at all.

        Oy, all that work and some mumbly old V6? If you are going to hack a car, at least make the results worthwhile!

        Like an LS1/T56...

          I don't think I've ever heard a good sounding V6.. I4 yes, I6 yes, V8 not sure haha etc..

          but V6... maybe I've just never heard a good one.

            GM V6's in particular always seems to have this unpleasant sounding drone coming out of them.

            Now the VR6 in my old Jetta made some really great noises, after I took out the middle 'suitcase' muffler. But that's really *almost* an I6. And I6's can sound great.

              "And I6's can sound great."

              I wouldn't know. The I6 in my '95 E320 Mercedes is practically silent when idling. ;-) Actually, it sounds beautiful when you step on it.

              It lacks the low-end punch (and the soul) of my old 940 Turbo, though. The 940 was the best Volvo motor I've ever had. Pity it got wrecked. R.I.P. Everyone walked away, though.
