Why?

[Quick6'n'-K.C.]

I just had a moment of clarity: maybe he's doing it because he's sick of dumping cash into a car and wants something more reliable.

Dont say that too loud, my daily driver might hear you and finally break down on me for once!!! :biggrin:

If he is tired of dumping money into it, then why would he spend what 8 grand or so for the conversion on a 18 year old car????
Each to his own i guess???

I agree with the masses, he should have put twins on it!

I was catching sh*t from some RX7 owners when I was looking for a "donor car" to drop a non rotary engine into... I guess it doesnt bother me too much as far as the car is concerned but why do a swap like this? Its nothing really special. As for the sbc Chow car, well, technically thats just as much a "sin" as dropping a 2.4L 4 cyliner in it by your guys' view.

I'd rather see "neat" cars than the same old thing, even if it means a few rare cars get repowered... unforturnately in this case, the power-plant isnt that thrilling...

I think that they made a really nice job! Although it's not ''original'' anymore, I agree with ''tommynos'' ...it's HIS car, so WHO CARES!!!...If HE likes it like that, well, it's ok with me! Even though I have nothing against cars being kept original to give them more ''collectible'' value, I also think that they're meant to be enjoyed, and making the cars the way each of us wants them to be is part of enjoying them!

I agree. My Buick is the most reliable car I've ever owned - and the highest mileage car I've ever owned.
