From your pictures you have only a body and fenders, no chassis or engine? from pictures yours appears to be the VW chassis kit.

I’m looking for an IRS rear axle assembly from either a 2002 up Thunderbird or a Thunderbird turbo coupe, for the front suspension I want to use a Fiero as they would be a direct bolt into the Chevette mounts. Hopefully this project can get moving this summer.

Thanks, I’ll be able to find mounts a several sources for the chev v8 at Speedway, Summit, Jegs etc. I’m thinking (DANGER/WARNING) that I’m going to use the tube front mount from Speedway and the rear will be something like you used.

What motor mount did you use? what transmission and mount did you use? radiator? I noticed you mention front steering issues, I’m planning on using a Fiero complete front as it is a direct bolt in with a good amount of performance upgrades available.

The Chevette has some major differences from the Pinto based car. My plan is to lower and extend the front suspension and lower and mount a different rear axle probably an s-10 the engine trans I have is a 1981 350 4 speed from a Camaro. The front will sit about 12″ ahead of the radiator. The front suspesion I want to use is from an…[Read more]
