EP Civic SI with an RSX front-end

Someone restored an Oldsmobile Omega SportOmega and gave it an AWD Saab 9-3 drivetrain swap.

Porsche 944 ‘Safari’. It's for sale if you want it.

Safari all the Porsches!

It's not bad, it's well done and a good colour for it, but comes across like something Richard Hammond would show up with for a Top Gear special.

A lowered street truck with beefy all-terrain tires is not something I expected to see:

I honestly like the RSX front end better than the stock front end. It works surprisingly well.

Looks like ass, but I think those first gen wheels would look a treat on a standard second gen Blazer or even a ZR2.

Look like they bought it at the Salvo.

They're the wrong wheels but I think the size is just right. I prefer blackwalls but they look like balloons in the standard size and would not suit the Caddy. I also appreciate the metal roof.

Things get really odd when you pop the hood.

That mill appears to be straight out of an early Lightning, albeit with a little bit of dress-up.

Fordillac

Would legit daily that, lol

Also, the 'Fordillac' name was used in the late 40s/early 50s when the ultimate hot rodding trick was swapping in a Cadillac OHV V8 into your Ford hot rod. How times have changed

I love it but I think I'd keep and build the Olds. The gas block is a fine foundation and aluminum heads and intake would probably get it within 50lbs of the Windsor in addition to pumping up power. Plus 350hp from an Olds 350 feels a lot different than from a Chevy 350 by virtue of the shorter stroke, and the Lightning was originally...230hp?

I mean, yeah, but it wouldn't be as freakish then haha

Actually don't mind this too much. The front is horrible but the back isn't really all that bad.

Needs some sort of horrible Chip Foose-ish livery from the first page of the Marketplace list. Then it will be perfect for kidnapping plots while stile keeping under 800 PI.

My wife won't let me buy this for $2,200:
