Default The First Wide Small Car

Anyone remember the advertisement for the AMC Pacer^^^?

77" wide with a 100" wheelbase?

Well, between the advert, Wayne's World:

It'll take a lot of stiffening to get it to lateral-g standards, but should be pretty fun.
L76 and 6L80 going in.

Can anyone say sleeper?!?!
Planning a Ford 8.8 out back, and some boxed areas between the subframe/rockers. Don't plan on running anything too sticky out back, so we're not planning a full cage as of yet.

Yep. I'm with Jarhead, I love the dare to be different motif. You could have a real blast with this, like what'll be on the license plate... FSH BOWL? Or PACE STR (Pace Setter), or FAT BUTY, or ... Have fun, looking forward to seeing it unfold!
