RA65 Front end conversion?

[Ashe]

I remeber seeing a picture somewhere on here where someone had swapped out the front fenders, bumper, headlights and hood with another car (I think it was a soarer), it was supposed to be just a direct bolt on thing. Does anyone know what I am talking about?

Yeah i think i remember seeing something like that too, it was actually an MA61 with the panels off and MZ20 i *think*. As far as i know the engine bay dimensions are exactly the same between the two so it would kinda make sense. On the other hand i may be completely wrong!

It would've been an MA61 and an MZ10 Soarer (or one of the other variants of each). It still wouldn't be a bolt-on swap though.

This is what they call a "Soapra" (stupid name I know). It's fairly common with MA70/MZ20, but relatively rare with MA61/MZ10. IIRC the guards need to be modified to match up with the doors, so it's certainly not a straightforward panel swap.
