I would say if it is cheap why not but if its expensive well u know my answer- or if that blocks turns up and its at a good price-get it also where is the t5g and do u want a monster walky or u want it to be original if original where or have u got the other parts to turn it back to 75% original? every one knows a-walkies are worth something and are expensive -but ask yourself would u pay top dollar for a 25 % orignal car? also think of the future for re-sale value- why waste money in the future if everyone walkiew are worth heaps in year's to come? Have a good think about what i have said- p.s killer combo though -

They might as well have used an exec and built it up to be a walky replica. Basically from what your saying, the driveline has been completely replaced. Not good for resale. If you can get the original engine, then you might be ok. All depends on price. But without the original parts to convert it back, your not gonna make money and may struggle to break even in years to come.

The car was bought a few years ago and was a rolling car still has original trim ,steering wheel and gear shift which came with the car im not sure if engine and box were damaged or stolen as the car was bought of a guy that races circuit cars so no it doesnt come with them it will be one hell of a car when finished and at a good price for me but not sure if its what i want as ive got 650+ hp tubbed hatchback torana and one big engine is plenty.I just want a good drive car.

Then buy a bog stock original mate.

How much does he want for it?
