Not that I would ever consider doing this, but I wonder how the car handles with the mid engine and what it looks like overall. Got any more pics or info on it?

That's the only pic I saw. I imagine it handles awful. Curious how he did the driveline though, looks as if the engine sits right where the differential should be.

Thanks, now you got my curiosity really going. I wonder if he's using some type of transaxle. I new a guy who put a 455 Olds and transaxle out of a Toronado in back(seat) of a Corvair...it was quick, but he had a hard time keeping the front end on the ground until it got moving.

Found this one on the site. I'd really like to see a picture of what's under the hood. 8O

Well, since he tossed the motor in the bed now he has a trunk up front!

Looking at the tailgate, it looks as though he's used a Riviera final drive.
