How about a wilder one?
The new GTV is FWD so there is no central drive shaft to mess with.
Get a new engine/gearbox/mounting subframe/suspension/driveshafts/brakes
unit of another V6, weld it in place of the vestigial chairs et viola
My cowards way out so far involves auto transmission such as sportronic
to avoid all the clutch pedal pressure issues, trying not to have two
clutches and gearsticks etc.
I'll give it a go if anybody out there has two new GTVs they could do
without. Anybody?
