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:

And well, this advert:
Name: PacerBooty.jpg Views: 575 Size: 12.7 KB
Project Pacemaker was born.
Name: Pacer1.jpg Views: 590 Size: 64.8 KB
It'll take a lot of stiffening to get it to lateral-g standards, but should be pretty fun.
L76 and 6L80 going in.

Fits Like a glove!

Name: Pacer3.jpg Views: 586 Size: 48.5 KB
Oh and who would've guessed it... this fits!!! (well... except the hood)

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!
