The gutting part is the easy part. I'd be worried that you'd be missing a part you'd need if you went with a tub. Also, the parts that you'd pull out can be sold and make up the cost of the donor in the first place.

How much are you looking to spend?

What about a roller with a V8 and everything in it?

Mines back on the market once I can convince someone to unlock the FS thread...

Really not sure honestly. Once its back on the road, that mood will probably change again. These cars are a riot, even with the little 5.3!

I'm in Charleston, SC and I am going to sell a really ragged out shell as soon as I do my swap. Not sure if that is what you are interested in but I thought I would throw it out there.

The "shell" has an LS1 in it right now - I'm just rebuilding it in a different shell.

Done. I am a moderator you know. I just come here occasionally. Will probably have some stuff of my own for sale soon.
