project type 3 v8 fastback

[chop top cortina mk2]

hi all,
hope every one is well and staying safe.
thought you might like to see my lastest project. its a 72 type3 fastback with a 67 front end welded on and because it was such a basket case there was only one option of how to build.
so with one of my laser cut universal chassis kits i decided to junk the old aircooled motor and stick a v8 in the front, so heres the plan.
custom chassis
large wheels
jag susspension
rover 4.6 v8
mazda rx8 gearbox
and loads of custom fabbed parts.
heres some pics,


the inside of the shell have all been removed and the front wings have been extended by 6" to give a little more room for the v8. its been sat at ride height ready for the chassis to be started.
