Econo-box from Hell

I started gutting the car today.  I found lots of room for a V8.

Are ya going to keep it stealth as possible? I would! Keep it ride height with slicks tucked up nice and neat and a super quiet exhaust. Build the ultimate sleeper kinda like the civette

OMG that is freaking sweet. I have always wanted to do that to a civic and get it al light as i could with a lot of motor.

Whoever built that has mad fab skills (and a fat wallet).  The car is MUCH smaller than a Civic so it's going to be pretty hard to keep it stock looking and still have a V8 in it.  This car is so small it may only seat one when I'm done.  It makes a Geo Metro look huge.

ANY UPDATES???

I have aquired a Ford 9" rear, Powerglide tranny, pinto front suspension, and a retired IMCA chassis that will donate sections of it's roll cage to the Honda.  I will be shortening the Powerglide so I can make a driveshaft fit. 

I'm hoping to get the materials for the frame in the near future.  I need to get some of my side work caught up in my shop before I can dive back into this project.

Instead of a V8 I think a 3.8 turbo would really rock in that little car. It would fit a lot better, be lighter and you could relocate the turbo to the rear of the car like the STS Turbo kits along with the battery for a little more weight in the rear and less in the front.
