At first I thought you meant Front Wheel Drive. I've seen a couple other of those around the web. Poo.

Just reminded me if I had the machining and fabricatings skills, I'd take out the V8 in my rust bucket cougar, and plop it into my Daytona for the justfication of puting a sticker in the rear window "Powered By Ford"

As for "Why"? 4 fun! It's a diffrent offroader to your standard jeeps

Oh, I'm here, and again I say: I will do it some day. Explorer drivetrain with IRS and 4.6V8/5-speed auto. 100% stock T-Bird body sitting on top of it. 31" tires. Oh yes. It will be done.

What a waste.

Somewhat reminds me of a moron around here with a mint 68 El Camino body on a 4x4 truck frame. Looks horrible.

Yeah thats pretty gay right there. He totally should have put bigger tires under it ya'll. :hick:

I agree what a waste. At least the car appears to have been a POS from the get go.
