Yes, right you are.
The engine is a 3.5 on carbs which I think is better, there was a rusty Essex V6 in the chassis so I'm hoping that the V8 will fit and that I can find a suitable gearbox cheap as I'm on a tight budget.
Only decided to do this as I have most of the bits and rather than put it all on fleabay I looked at it and thought....I can build this and have a lovely car for not a lot of money.
Only real problem being that the chassis is about a foot longer wheelbase and I'm not sure what it will look like stretched.
