A clubbie with an extended front , fortech arches and Daihatsu 1600 engine . Someones done a lot of work to give up now , wonder if they had anything engineered or just did it and then thought it was too hard to finish .

Looks like a straight cut and shut with Daihatsu suspension/front end under the extended mini guards ,

$1,000 start bid or buy it now $1700 , it's in Penrith in western Sydney .

That's such a shame as it's quite easy to fit that motor in without hacking up the front and doing a complete transfer :S

Quite possibly just go away .

I don't mind it actually , the nose is a little too long for my liking and the firewall looks like paper mache but otherwise looks neat enough (plus I love fortech arches ) .
