Doable, might need some upgrades to the brakes/suspension/steering/body.


And you would need either a turbo or supercharger!
Under the standard body was a box section frame with Granada suspension so it stopped well and handled reasonably. The chap I bought it from would tow a large caravan to the hot rod nationals, do the burnout competition until the (spare) tyres burst then at the end of the weekend, hook up the caravan again in drive home. It was certainly reliable and enormous fun.
