Take a look at the two of them. I think the best <DIV></DIV>&gt;thing to do here would be to obtain the transmission from a Syncro, <DIV></DIV>&gt;along with various and sundry Syncro specific parts to mount it, and <DIV></DIV>&gt;install that in the body you have. There will also be some engine parts <DIV></DIV>&gt;from a Syncro, and some hoses &amp; pipes that you will need. <DIV></DIV>&gt; <DIV></DIV>&gt; You will also need to modify the front suspension/steering rack mount, <DIV></DIV>&gt;but this at least isn't quite so difficult. <DIV></DIV>&gt; <DIV></DIV>&gt;You can do it! It is, however, a real serious project. <DIV></DIV>&gt; <DIV></DIV>&gt;Chuck Hill <DIV></DIV></div><br clear=all><hr> <a href="http://g.msn.com/8HMJENUS/2740??PS="><b>Get MSN 8</b> and enjoy automatic e-mail virus protection. </a> </html>
