Metro Rat..?

Had this ole girl for over 35 years,"The Breeze", she's been sittin for the last 15, got some makeover plans for her,,whatta ya think.?

the last is a photoshop pic of what I wanna do,, lowered 6", chopped 8", an the top rear panel moved forward 8 ft, (its a 10ft van) to make a super cab hauler outta of her. the side doors would be power sliders from a late model mini van. it allready has a 351 Cleveland ,C6 auto I swapped in back in the middle 70's,,

I think it's a cool idea and you kind of owe the ole girl for waiting so long.

What would "The Breeze" be telling if the old Metro could talk??? I agree it will be a heck of a neat machine the way you intend to modify it.

I saw the one Tucci was buildin' a few years ago. it was kinda Salmon colored and had a big front wh drive unit mounted in the back , like an Olds Tornado or Caddy , it was pretty cool , they slammed it on the ground and had 19's or 20's on it..

Yeah, these big ole trucks ya see sittin around are prime for the imagination, a guy could really cut one down to size and create somethin pretty wild.
