Turbo rocket 1961 tempest ground up build
The building of a 1961 tempest with donor body parts from a Buick to make it a hardtop pillar less coupe, with a 4.6 liter Rover motor and a 1962 (red enameled) turbocharger with alcohol injection and a side draught Rochester, and a 1963 rope shaft and rear end from a 326 powered 1963 model. Literally from the ground up, engine, driveline, wheels and then body. Also will need trunk floor cut from a 63 to weld in for the Z bar, otherwise 62 swing axle will have to be bolted to it - with stock wheel protruding out 1.5 inches over 1961 placement. Unless I get aftermarket wheels and go a couple degrees positive with the center offset & move the tires in. Just wont be able to rotate without breaking bead and rotating tires off rims.
