Hi harko,
I'm very keen to put my EK on a chassis, would you be able to give me a few more details on how you did it, possibly in a different thread if you like.
Cheers
Jas

What has the NSW rego department, and your engineer defined your chopped ute on that chassis with the Big Block. For full registration.

Its a body swap . Just like a commodore on a 4wd chassis .
The roof chop goes under the roof chop requirements as you know .
and the big block under the power to weight ratio .
Jas if you can weld its fairly basic , Have a lay under the car and have a think then ask any questions you want.

Thommo Im still going to mimmick the special dash trim so the smoothed area wont realy be seen , It just fills the radio inset so it will be one continuous trim .
Engine mounts ! these pics are old now - todays effort was a full day of sweeping and organising the shed , then swapped sides with the 57 so I could get to the engine and box in the 54
400 just has a ballsy ring to it ay Mephious

Just looking at that one , I bet youve done a lot of sanding with all those mods over the years .
