Default My pipedream

Hi, I did think of something ridiculous. An FG Falcon which has a territory drivetrain (AWD) and converted into a coupe. What do you think it'd be like? I know it would be very costly and time consuming. Also, would it be safe to shorten the territory's drivetrain by about 4 CM and narrow it by about 30CM?

Yep - pretty much been done (if you count a wagon as a coupe...) Enjoy all 3354 posts (and counting).
