I'm loving the new Factory Five Racing F9. It's still only a concept, but should go into production as a complete build-it-yourself kit once the kinks are worked out with the 100% carbon fiber body. Take the F9 and stuff one of these in it: Mate that to a DTC transmission and call it a day. Last edited by dscabra; 02-19-2021 at 08:58 PM.. |

My first car was a MK2 Jetta that a neighbour gave me. The engine and running gear was shot, but the chassis and body were solid. I shoehorned in a 2.8L VR6 engine from a 1998 golf VR6, and changed just about every mechanical component in the process. It made awesome noises, and was decently quick until the coolant temp got to 70degC...

Definitely not for the Bimmer forums, but i have a soft spot for '70 Buick GSX..
Keeping it simple, a day 2 car, flowmaster mufflers & xpipes, then some buick rallye wheels to seal the deal |

Alright, mine would be a 1972 Pinto with an 1989 E30 M20/Getrag manual. Keep the front Pinto coil-over and add in a E85/86 rear subframe/suspension. Ford metallic green over white/green leather interior.

Some of the suspension, steering, and drive train could be sourced from a donor, but most of the Factory Five Kits come with all new parts now for everything but the drive train, battery, and a couple of other parts you need to source. The Cobra replica kit can still be ordered as a "base" kit, but most buy the "complete" kit. The new F9 (car in my original post) is not available yet, but is getting close to production.

66 Chevelle with a full-bore track day build would be a fun project for causing havoc at the local HPDE.

I'd just buy a GMA T.50 and be done with it.
11,000 rpm V12, manual transmission and seats three. It's an updated/improved F1. I'm not sure you can get any better than this.
