    Don't know about huge, but they aren't small.

    Given the little info we have to go on.

    If the car is full chassis and drag only then the engine bay can be modded in many ways to fit the engine of choice.

    Don't be Stout haters

    Good point, nearly every second farm has one rusting in a paddock soemwhere though so if he "rescues" one of those from the oxidation devil then I guess that'd be alright

    Definitely MX32. Also looks damn classy when painted up nicely.

    i want to put a big block blown chev or ford into it, need leaf springs for the 9" diff....makes it a lot cheaper and easier to convert. but i spose with a little more work the coil spring ass isnt really that bigga drama

    probly wanting around 1000hp....maybe a bit more. something that will run 9s consistently, dipping into 8s perhaps...car would need to be tubbed...

    Hilux is too light in the rear, and the engine bays are tiny...fyi, the lexus v8 doesnt fit with a radiator etc without cutting the rad panel to extend the bay....so good luck fitting a big block!

    the ms53 looks like it could be a candidate.

    does the mx32 have a full chassis/ leaf spring?

    Hilux would have what you initially listed but wouldn't a multi link rear end be better?
    my ms112 definelty didnt have a full chassis, i know as i lowered it and was wondering where the full chassis line actually stopped...

    i dont think my ms85 from 76 had one either....

    wrong, just had my 1uz in there 2 days ago without chopping firewall or extending rad support, with my pwr rad (thick) and 50mm of clearance behind it!!

    You are on crack. I suggest you get off the stuff and take a closer look.

    All Crowns till the 130 series inclusive are full chassis. End of conversation.

    FYI there is a 110 series rolling Crown chassis on Ebay at the moment (link for the crackhead). Maybe take a look and get back to me genuflecting before my aweZome know'all'edge. See those rails each side - that's part of the chassis. See how there's no body yet the car is able to be driven and steered - that's an indication that it has a full chassis.

    Stick to the 302 Blake.

    is there any amount of "wow" factor that would make you choose a car that didnt match this criteria?

    i wanna see a drag "Carina!

    but a ms65 sedan would be sweet too....raised rear lowered front.
